In a statement, the club wished to “express its sincere thanks to Philippe Montanier for his professionalism and his commitment, which enabled him to successively win the title of Ligue 2 BKT champion and then the Coupe de France.

Toulouse has already announced his replacement. It will be the Spaniard Carles Martinez Novell, his deputy, who arrived at the club last winter after having notably worked at the FC Barcelona training center. A nomination justified in another press release by the contribution of Carles Martinez Novell to the group this season. “Carles contributed to the success of TéFéCé last season, marked by victory in the Coupe de France, having had a decisive role in the development of the team’s game.
