The French adventure of Fabio Grosso, protagonist of Frosinone’s successful promotion to Serie A last season, is already over. The Italian coach has in fact been sacked by Lyon, who have already communicated the decision to him and who will make everything official with a statement in the next few hours. In his place, while waiting to find the right coach, the club has chosen to entrust the interim role to the 44-year-old Pierre Sage, head of the training centre, who will be supported by the former national defender Jeremie Brechet, until now at leading the U19.
Lyon appoint Pierre Sage as interim manager
The home defeat against Lille last Sunday was fatal for Grosso, a 2-0 which made John Textor, American businessman and president of Lyon, definitively lose patience. So the latter, together with the new sporting director David Friio, opted for a new change.
Grosso was made official on the Lyon bench last September 16th, after winning the competition from Gattuso, who then took a seat on the Marseille bench. From there he took over a team that was last in the table with just one point in 4 days but things did not improve, as demonstrated by the performance (one success in 7 Ligue 1 matches, 4 defeats) and the team always last on 4 points. distance from the playout zone.
