RC Lens weigh Habib Beye as potential successor to Yannick Cahuzac

Habib Beye, who has been a free agent since leaving Olympique de Marseille last summer, could return to a bench in France as his name appears among the candidates being examined by RC Lens to replace Yannick Cahuzac, whose departure is now expected.

According to L’Équipe, the Lens club is also interested in Didier Digard and is monitoring the situation of Régis Le Bris, who is currently struggling at Sunderland.

Owner Joseph Oughourlian’s priority, however, remains Pierre Sage, who is close to leaving Crystal Palace.

Beye’s candidacy therefore illustrates RC Lens’s interest in several profiles before a final decision on its next coach is made.
