Liam Rosenior in Advanced Talks to Become Paris FC Head Coach

The reported deal hinges on shareholder approval of funds for a requested six-to-eight person backroom overhaul.

Overview

  • Reports on Monday say Rosenior is negotiating a two-year contract with an option for a further 12 months and is the leading candidate to replace Paris FC’s current coach.
  • The club has pushed back an official unveiling to around July 9 while Rosenior’s staffing requests and the related budget are finalised by the Arnault family shareholders.
  • Antoine Kombouaré remains under contract through 2027 but is widely expected to depart if a deal with Rosenior is completed, which would require a mutual exit or other contractual settlement.
  • Rosenior arrives seeking a quick managerial reset after his April 22 dismissal by Chelsea and draws on prior experience managing Strasbourg in France.
  • Paris FC’s leadership frames the move as part of a plan to consolidate in Ligue 1 after finishing 11th last season and the appointment could shift pre-season timing, recruitment needs, and the club’s coaching structure.
