L’Équipe are reporting that former Girondins de Bordeaux manager David Guion is set to be hired as the new manager at Ligue 2 side ESTAC Troyes.
Troyes, who after last season’s relegation to the second division currently sit in the relegation zone, are without a manager since parting ways with Patrick Kisnorbo last month. The Australian, who replaced Bruno Irles in November 2022, had been under pressure for some time having only won three of his 40 games in charge of Les Aubistes.
Like Kisnorbo, Guion also lost his job this season after being sacked by Bordeaux in October. He has been in discussions with City Football Group in recent days and whilst some details still need to be rectified, Guion looks likely to take the role at the Stade de l’Aube. However, his arrival will not be confirmed before Saturday’s trip to face Bordeaux. It will instead be Alou Diarra, the manager of ESTCA’s reserve team, who will take control of the team.
