STRASBOURG (FRANCE) (ITALPRESS) – Strasbourg wasted no time in identifying the replacement for Rosenior, who has moved to Chelsea: it is another Englishman, Gary O’Neil, former manager of Bournemouth and Wolverhampton.
“I am proud to join this incredible club and I can’t wait to get started,” O’Neil said in his first comments. “Racing has a unique history, extraordinary passion, great resilience and, of course, loyal supporters who want to see this team play well and achieve results. We have a group of very high-quality players and clear, ambitious objectives for the season. My priority is to work hard with the team and give everything to ensure the club’s success.”
Out of work since December 2024, when he was dismissed by Wolves, the 42-year-old O’Neil – according to L’Equipe – has signed a contract until 2029 and will make his debut on Saturday in the French Cup against US Avranches.
In Ligue 1, the number of managerial changes since the start of the season has risen to four: previously at Monaco (Pocognoli for Hütter), Nantes (Kantari for Castro) and Nice (Puel for Haise).
