Benoît Tavenot candidate for Bastia managerial role after Frédéric Antonetti’s arrival | OneFootball

According to L’Équipe, Benoît Tavenot is a candidate for the managerial role at SC Bastia following the arrival of Frédéric Antonetti as technical director.

Bastia confirmed Antonetti’s arrival at the club in a press release on Wednesday. The former RC Strasbourg Alsace and FC Metz manager will join the Ligue 2 side at the end of the current campaign. One of his biggest tasks upon his arrival will be nominating a new manager.

As confirmed by the Corsican club, Bastia will place their faith in the managerial duo of Michel Moretti and Lilian Laslandes until the end of the current campaign, with the club looking to avoid relegation to National 1. However, Bastia also confirmed that the managerial situation would evolve at the end of the season.

L’Équipe understands that Tavenot, who was assistant to Antonetti at Strasbourg and Metz, is one of the candidates being considered for the role. The Frenchman is currently under contract at National 1 side Dijon until 2025.
