· Sports FRAGBR

Paris FC appointed Liam Rosenior as head coach on Monday, handing the former Chelsea manager a two-year contract running through June 2028 as the Ligue 1 club prepares for the 2026–27 season.

Rosenior, 41, takes over from Antoine Kombouare, who was brought in last February and kept the side clear of relegation before Paris FC finished 11th in Ligue 1. Rosenior will lead his first training session on Thursday.

The appointment marks Rosenior's return to management after Chelsea dismissed him in April following just 106 days in charge. Paris FC sporting director Marco Neppe cited Rosenior's track record of developing players, a reputation built at Strasbourg, where he guided the club to seventh in Ligue 1 and European qualification.
