Paris FC Holds Direct Talks With Liam Rosenior for Two-Year Head Coach Role

The discussions would signal Paris FC's push to secure an experienced coach to help it stay in Ligue 1.

Overview

  • Reports say Paris FC and Liam Rosenior have entered direct negotiations over a two-year head-coach contract, but no deal has been announced and financial terms remain undisclosed.
  • Rosenior left Chelsea in April after a run of poor results and previously managed Strasbourg, giving him recent experience in French football that appeals to Paris FC.
  • Any summer appointment faces a contractual hurdle because incumbent coach Antoine Kombouaré remains under contract through 2027, so a change would require his agreement or a formal separation.
  • Paris FC is weighing other options, including Walid Regragui, which means the club's recruitment process is still active and not finalized.
  • The move would mark a quick pivot for Rosenior back to France and reflects the fast turnover in the coaching market; the next steps to watch are whether Kombouaré departs and whether Paris FC completes formal terms with Rosenior.
