LOSC thinks of Patrick Vieira
Looking for a successor to Christophe Galtier, who has expressed his desire to leave the Northern club despite a contract that runs until June 2022, the Lille leaders are willing to recruit an experienced technician, either through his coaching career, either through a great playing career, reports
L'Équipe
.
Many candidates want to take charge of the champion team of France and which will play in the Champions League next season.
But the name of Patrick Vieira, spent among others on the bench of OGC Nice, would be "well positioned on a list of possibilities, not to say at the top", assures the sports daily.
That of Claudio Ranieri, who knows Ligue 1 well thanks to his Monegasque and Nantes experiences, is also mentioned.
LOSC is due to resume training on June 25.
By then, the Mastiffs should have a new trainer.

Tiémoué Bakayoko to Fiorentina?
Will he continue his Serie A career?
According to
Sky Sport information
, Tiémoué Bakayoko, loaned to Naples this season by Chelsea, would be tracked by Fiorentina, where his former coach in Campania, Gennaro Gattuso, has just landed.
The Italian technician would be very interested in bringing the French to Tuscany to strengthen the midfield of the Florentine team.
La Viola would have made inquiries with the Blues in order to know their intentions concerning the future of the midfielder, which is announced on the departure this summer.
She would like to have him come on loan, but his large salary could be a problem.
Laurent Batlles priority of Téfécé
While Patrice Garande, who did not reach the goal of the climb, was dismissed one year from the end of his contract, Toulouse is looking for a new coach.
According to information from
La Dépêche
, the highly prized Laurent Batlles would be the priority of the Pink City club.
The 45-year-old technician knows the region well since he was trained in Téfécé.
He has the right profile for the Violets since he has managed to bring ESTAC back to the elite this season.
According to
RMC Sport
, the ex-midfielder, still linked to Troyes, should soon meet with Damien Comolli, the Toulouse president.
In the event of failure in the Laurent Batlles case, David Guion, passed by the Stade de Reims, would be a possibility considered by the formation third of the last exercise of Ligue 2.
