Carlos Vicens close to replacing Paulo Fonseca at Lyon
Lyon's reported next coach is ex-Guardiola staffer Carlos Vicens; an announcement could come Monday, with Jorge Maciel in charge until Sunday.
Carlos Vicens is reportedly the next coach of Lyon, according to Canal +, which cites internal club sources and was picked up by TuttoMercatoWeb. The French club announced two days ago the departure of Paulo Fonseca, who is leaving for Sporting after a 2-0 win over Angers.
The 43-year-old Spaniard led Braga to the Europa League semifinals in 2025-26, but was sacked on 20 October. Earlier he worked in City's youth setup and on Pep Guardiola's staff.
Meanwhile Jorge Maciel is in interim charge after a 1-1 draw with Real Sociedad. The deal is nearly done and the announcement could come on Monday.
