RC Lens have officially parted ways with head coach Yannick Cahuzac, the club announced on 12 November, after two months of poor results.

The decision came a week after Lens were beaten 9-1 by Como. Cahuzac had taken over from Dino Toppmöller, who had also been dismissed earlier in the season.

According to RMC Sport and TuttoMercatoWeb, Lens are considering Pierre Sage and former Morocco coach Walid Regragui as possible successors.
