It is the chronicle of an announced divorce. Because marriage had been forced, certainly, between the very singular personality of a coach and the identity of the club who had hired him. Jorge Sampaoli and the Stade Rennaisit's already over.

Only a few weeks after his appointment to take over from Julien Stéphan, the Argentinian technician will not finish his mission with the Breton club. Sixteenth and in a barragist position, Rennes is in danger to keep its place in Ligue 1. The club's management has decided.

Beye chosen to save the club!

To straighten the bar, Stade Rennais was not missing an option. The timing of the moment could encourage Arnaud Pouille to turn to Pierre Sage, dismissed from his functions by John Textor after saving Olympique Lyonnais last season.

Sage therefore presented the appropriate profile for the position, but it was his old superior, Habib Beye, who was chosen. After leading the Red Star in the League, the current Canal + consultant set out to the market in search of an offer. He initialed a six -month contract with an extension of one year in the event of a maintenance, which would be automatic.
