- Sébastien Tambouret, Pierre-Alexandre Lelièvre and Maxime Le Marchand have been assigned to run first-team training until further notice.
- The decision follows four heavy defeats, including a 3-1 loss at Lens and a Coupe de France exit to Marseille, with 10 goals conceded across the last three official matches.
- Local outlets report Franck Haise as the leading candidate to take over, noting he is available and has prior ties to Rennes and president Arnaud Pouille; no appointment has been announced.
