Omar Daf has been fired from his position as coach of DFCO due to poor performance, with Pascal Dupraz expected to replace him.

Omar Daf is no longer the coach of DFCO. Arrived from Sochaux on June 17, 2022, the record is salty: 19th in Ligue 2 with 26 points in 29 days. According to our information, Pascal Dupraz should take over on the Dijon bench.

Omar Daf and the DFCO it’s over. The 46-year-old former Sochalien was laid off on the decision of Olivier Delcourt. Arrived on June 17, 2022 after a good season with FC Sochaux-Montbéliard, the Dijon club was in bad shape this season under his leadership.

The position of the Franco-Senegalese had been weakened for several months and the home defeat against Pau (0-1) on March 18 seems to have sealed his future. Counting the last in Caen (2-1), Saturday 1is April, Omar Daf and his players remained on four defeats in a row.

26 points in 29 days and 19es of Ligue 2, the club is in a critical situation in the fight to maintain. Seven lengths from Pau FC, the first non-relegable, the rescue operation promises to be very complicated for the Burgundians.

According to our information, Pascal Dupraz should take over on the Côte-d’Oriens bench. The Frenchman had been free of any contract since June 30, 2022 and the end of his Stéphane adventure which had ended in a historic descent to the 18e place in Ligue 1.

The former coach of Evian-Thonon-Gaillard, Toulouse or Saint-Étienne, is renowned for being a rescue specialist. We can cite the 2016/2016 season when he secured the place in Ligue 1 for Toulouse FC on the last day. But his last experience on a bench, with the Greens of ASSE, ended in blood sausage, with a descent into Ligue 2.

Pascal Dupraz will have a new opportunity to prove that he is still a leader of men: there are 9 games left to prevent the DFCO from descending into National.

The DFCO will hold a press conference this Monday, April 3, at 6 p.m.
