RC Lens have sacked coach Cahuzac, the club announced, according to TuttoMercatoWeb. Lens lost 2-1 at home to Marseille on 8 November, with Marseille's winner coming from substitute Keyliane Abdallah in the 82nd minute.

Lens are 11th in Ligue 1 with 13 points from 10 games. Pierre Sage, who led the club to second and to the Coupe de France last season, has since left, and Italian and French outlets now discuss a return to the bench.

Foot Mercato reports that bringing Sage back is on the table. Marseille, coached by Bruno Génésio, continued their climb up the table after the win.
