PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN HAVE named Gerard Precheur as the new coach of their women’s team to replace Didier Olle-Nicolle, who was replaced despite being cleared after an investigation into allegations of “inappropriate” behaviour.
Precheur, the 62-year-old who twice won the Women’s Champions League as coach of Lyon, has signed a contract until 2023 with the option of a second season, PSG said on Monday.
Olle-Nicolle was suspended at the end of May as an investigation took place into the accusations over his behaviour towards a player, which he denied.
PSG said an internal inquiry in May had found that Olle-Nicolle “committed no wrongdoing” but said he had left a year before the end of his contract “by mutual agreement”.
