Liam Rosenior is appointed as the new head coach of Ligue 1 club Paris FC. Multiple outlets report that the 41-year-old returns to management in France after being dismissed by Chelsea in April. His Chelsea spell had lasted about four months, following his departure from Strasbourg earlier in the year to take charge at Stamford Bridge.
Reports also say the move comes after Paris FC confirms the departure of its previous manager, Antoine Kombouare. The Athletic and other sources state Rosenior signs a two-year deal with Paris FC, and he is expected to begin work with the club soon. One outlet adds that he is set to start training with his new team on Thursday.
Rosenior’s appointment is described as his first managerial role since leaving Chelsea, and one report notes it is his third club within roughly a year. The club announcement places his role as the replacement for Kombouare, bringing him back to the French game following his earlier coaching positions and his short tenure in England.
