Former Manchester City assistant coach Carlos Vicens has been appointed as the new manager of Ligue 1 outfit Lyon just three weeks after being dismissed by Portuguese club Braga. The 43-year-old Spaniard steps into the Groupama Stadium dugout to succeed Paulo Fonseca, who departed last week to take charge of boyhood side Sporting CP.
Paulo Fonseca has officially been appointed as the new manager of Sporting following a sudden mid-season departure from Lyon. The French club expressed deep regret over the unexpected move, which saw the Portuguese side pay a significant €5 million compensation fee to secure his services.
