Bryan Bergougnoux, former player and coach of the Tours FC, lived a bitter end with the club of his hometown. After being deprived of his professional status since 2019 and seeing the Tours FC relegated to Regional 1 in 2024, the team achieved a feat by qualifying for the 32nd final of the Coupe de France. However, this game proved to be the last for the club, as it was officially liquidated, resulting in its disappearance in the middle of the season. As a result of this situation, unemployed Bergougnoux was courted by several clubs in the Lyon region.

After considering different roles, the former OL Academy trained player opted for an assistant position. This opportunity was given to him by Didier Dugarry, who asked Bergougnoux to join the staff of Le Havre. Their collaboration dates back to the 2023-2024 season, when Dugarry had already known Bergougnoux during his visit to the BEPF. This appointment was formalized this Wednesday by the Norman club, marking a new chapter in the coach’s career.

This new opportunity will allow Bryan Bergougnoux to find Olympique Lyonnais on the 16th day of Ligue 1, scheduled for the last match of the year 2025 in Décines. This meeting represents a special occasion for Bergougnoux, who has a personal and professional history with the club. His return to the Lyon staff attests to his value and recognition in the world of French football.
