Olympique Lyonnais is looking for a new coach after the departure of Fabio Grosso. Many coaches are tracked, including Will Still. After the Stade de Reims victory this Friday evening against Strasbourg (2-1), the Reims technician spoke at a post-match press conference about the rumor sending him to OL. The 31-year-old man denied any contact.

“Yes, it reached me. I smiled about it, I laughed about it the other day. The weird thing is that my name is mentioned every time a coach is fired. Does it flatter the ego? Not bad ! But I don’t worry. I said it, I stayed at Stade de Reims for a reason and Stade de Reims is very good, for the moment. We’ll see what happens next, but it’s not on the agenda. Lyon? I have not been contacted at all,” he declared at a press conference, after his team’s success against RC Strasbourg.

Will Still and Stade de Reims have had an attractive start to the season. The Rémois are in 5th place in the Ligue 1 standings with a total of 23 points. High-level performances which allow the club to dream this season.

Provisionally one point off the podium (AS Monaco has 24 points), Stade de Reims will aim to try to find a place in Europe at the end of the 2023-2024 financial year. The Europa League and even the Champions League are within the ropes of Will Still’s men who play enticing and spectacular football. To be continued…
