The team reports that Thierry Laurey will step down as manager of the Strasbourg Ligue 1 team when his contract expires in June.

Laurey is already talking to those around him about the summer vacation he will be taking in his house near Montpellier, which is nearing completion.
To replace Laurey, Jocelyn Gourvennec is a name that continues to be brandished, the president of the FFF Noël Le Graët being a big fan of the former coach of Guingamp and Bordeaux.
Among the shortlisted are also the recent departures of Rennes boss Julien Stéphan and Rémi Garde, the latter having played for Strasbourg alongside Marc Keller between 1993 and 1996.

He’s also a coach Montpellier is considering in case he decides not to extend Michel der Zakarian’s contract beyond his current expiration date of June.
Dall’Oglio’s current agreement with Brest runs until June 2022.
