RC Lens push to reappoint Pierre Sage

RC Lens push to reappoint Pierre Sage RC Lens are pushing to reappoint Pierre Sage, who left to join Crystal Palace over the summer, but who is on the verge of being sacked by the Premier League club. Sage left Les Sang et Or following a campaign in which he took the club to a second-place finish in Ligue 1 and won the Coupe de France for the first time in their history. However, he had previously revealed a dream to manage in the Premier League and Crystal Palace, who knew in advance of Oliver Glasner’s impending departure, offered him that chance. However, it has not gone to plan for the Frenchman, who is on the verge of being sacked by Crystal Palace. That news could be officialised imminently. Similar news is expected at Lens in the coming hours. Yannick Cahuzac has been relieved of his duties after just nine games, L’Équipe understands. The publication also cited Sage as one of three candidates to replace the Corsican. Foot Mercato now understands that Lens are pushing to repatriate the Frenchman, just months after his exit. He is the preferred candidate of the three identified. GFFN | Luke Entwistle
