As a result, the two will not be on the bench for the Champagne side’s match against Lyon tomorrow, nor will they be present this weekend in the fixture against Angers.
García will be back at the earliest for the match against Saint-Étienne, his former club. In the meantime, RMC Sport report that assistant João Nuno Fonseca, goalkeeping coach Sébastien Hamel and member of staff Mickaël D’Amore will take charge.
