Tony Parker felt that Lyon Asvel Féminin needed a revival this summer, after a disappointing season with the experienced Pierre Vincent (58) on the bench.

Defeats in the quarter-finals of the Eurocoupe and the Coupe de France, then completely dominated in the championship final by Bourges (0-3), the Lyonnaises will therefore set off on a new cycle this summer.

🆕 David Gautier, a new coach for the Lionesses

The lucky one elected to coach until 2024 a plethora of talents (Sandrine Gruda, Gaby Williams, Julie Allemand, Marine Johannès, etc.) has been named David Gautier since Tuesday.

Former high-quality winger in the 2000s with Cholet and Strasbourg, the former French international (13 caps) comes out of seven seasons spent with the Union Féminine Angers Basket 49, including five years as head coach of the senior team. .

He will be at the next World Cup with several Lyonnaises

The 42-year-old coach distinguished himself above all by winning the LF2 championship in 2021, then by signing a good season as promoted to LFB, with a quarter-final of the play-offs against Villeneuve-d'Ascq and qualification for the Eurocup.

"He's a very promising coach," said Lyon president Tony Parker.

He will bring a lot of freshness and enthusiasm to our experienced workforce.

We can't wait to start this new adventure with him.

As Jean-Aimé Toupane's assistant in the France team, David Gautier already knows several Lionesses very well, with whom he will try to obtain a medal, from September 22, during the World Cup disputed in Australia. .
