It's a small shock wave that crossed Chambly this Saturday morning.
The day after the 17th defeat of the season on Friday against Châteauroux (0-2) during the 28th day of the National, coach Bruno Luzi was dismissed.
The brutal end of an adventure started in 2001. With 22 seasons on the bench, Bruno Luzi (56) had the greatest longevity among the coaches of a French professional club and even in Europe.
As a player, he scored more than 260 goals for Chambly, founded in May 1989 with his father Walter and his brother Fulvio.
His departure marks the end of a success story for the club from the small town of Oise which has known with him, seven accessions from the Interdistrict championship (today R3) to Ligue 2.
“Gaharo Doucouré is continuity”
After two seasons at this level, Chambly was relegated to National last June.
And he is sinking inexorably towards a second descent in a row which would lead to the loss of pro status and dismissals with the return to the amateur world (National 2).
Penultimate, Chambly has won only one of its last 19 games (13 losses, 5 draws, 1 victory).
A situation that forced President Fulvio Luzi to dismiss his brother for the last six games of the season.
Definitely heartbreaking for him.
Former club player and assistant to Bruno Luzi for three years, Gaharo Doucouré (35) has been appointed for the last six games of the season.
“This decision was taken collectively in the interests of the club.
There are 6 games left to save themselves.
We had to try something.
Bruno was a successful coach with FC Chambly Oise.
We thank him for everything he has given us.
Gaharo Doucouré is continuity.
It's up to him to bring a breath of fresh air and revolt," said president Fulvio Luzi in a press release on the club's social networks.
