FC Nantes could make a managerial change at the end of the season. Les Canaris are not yet assured of safety and currently hover just three points above the relegation play-off spot with five games remaining. They have a game in hand on those around them, against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.

There has been talk about the managerial position for much of the season at Nantes. Antoine Kombouaré came in at the end of last season to save the club from relegation, however, there has been a temptation to twist. Waldemar Kita attempted to replace Kombouré during the winter break, however, could not get deals over the line for either Habib Beye or Sergio Conceiçao.

Mohamed Toubache-Ter understands that Nantes are still on the look out for a new manager and could make a move for Pierre Sage. The Frenchman has been out of a job since leaving Olympique Lyonnais earlier in the season. Sage recently told The Athletic that he is looking to make a return to management.
