Liam Rosenior appointed head coach of Paris FC

Liam Rosenior has been appointed as the new head coach of Ligue 1 club Paris FC, returning to management three months after his dismissal from Chelsea. The 41-year-old Englishman signed a two-year contract with the club, with an option for a third, and will officially begin his tenure on Thursday, July 9, as the team resumes training.

Rosenior succeeds Antoine Kombouaré, who took charge of Paris FC in late February and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in their first season back in France's top flight after a 46-year absence. The club stated that following discussions, it was decided to end the collaboration with Kombouaré to open a new chapter.

This marks Rosenior's third coaching role in under a year. He left French side Strasbourg midway through the previous season to take over at Chelsea, where he signed a long-term deal but was dismissed in April after less than four months amid poor results. His tenure at Chelsea included a heavy defeat in the Champions League.

Rosenior brings prior experience in French football, having managed Strasbourg from July 2024. There, he earned recognition for guiding the club to a top-half finish and qualification for the UEFA Conference...
