Lyon appoint Peter Bosz as manager

Olympique Lyonnais have announced the appointment of former Ajax and Borussia Dortmund manager Peter Bosz as their new coach on a two-year deal.

Rudi Garcia

left his position in charge of

Lyon

after they failed to reach the Champions League and the club have moved quickly to appoint

Bosz

as his replacement.

The club confirmed the appointment on their website, adding that club president

Jean-Michel Aulas

, football general manager

Vincent Ponsot

and sporting director

Juninho

would join Bosz in a news conference on Sunday.

Lyon said the quartet would

"clarify the new parameters of the team's technical organization and explain what they will expect from the entire first team, as this commencement of a new cycle will give an added dimension to Olympique Lyonnais' ambitious project, both domestically and in the Europa League".

Bosz led

Ajax

to the Europa League final in 2017, beating his new employers in the semi-final. However, they failed to beat

Manchester United

in the final.

The 57-year-old guided Leverkusen to the 2020 German Cup final but was sacked in March and replaced on an interim basis by former Stuttgart boss Hannes Wolf, having endured a run of four wins in 18 matches in all competitions.
