Last Saturday, affected by the health problems of a relative in Barcelona, the Iberian technician, former trainer of Barça, was absent for personal reasons from the Auguste-Delaune stadium for the good draw (0-0) collected against PSG.
He will therefore not have the opportunity to return there and leaves with a record of 51 games at the head of the White and Red (14 wins, 18 losses and 19 draws).
His Belgian deputy had already acted as interim…
With eight small points, Reims is tied with Strasbourg (14th), Auxerre (16th) and Angers (17th) in a particular season where four teams will be relegated in order to reduce the championship to 18 clubs from 2023-2024.
Saturday, the Rémois move to Lorient, surprising second in the elite.
