Headline: RC Strasbourg Evaluates Management Options Amid Struggles Under Hugo Oliveira
RC Strasbourg Alsace is reportedly exploring potential replacements for head coach Hugo Oliveira, as indicated by a report from L’Équipe. Since his appointment this summer, the Portuguese manager has faced significant challenges.
Last week, Didier Digard was the first manager to be dismissed, followed by Yannick Cahuzac earlier this week, although RC Lens has yet to officially announce Cahuzac’s departure. He had only recently taken over for Dino Toppmoller, who exited Les Sang et Or by mutual consent.

Strasbourg to Consider Wilfried Nancy?
The ongoing international break presents a moment of reflection for Strasbourg, similar to the situation at Lens. This assessment has raised concerns regarding Oliveira’s performance; the team has garnered just 10 points from 10 matches and sits a mere two points above the relegation zone, falling behind in their pursuit of European football—an objective for the season.
Internally, there are reported “worries” about Oliveira’s future, leading the club to probe the availability of several managerial candidates, according to L’Équipe. Wilfried Nancy, who was a candidate prior to Oliveira’s appointment, remains without a club. Although the former Celtic manager has expressed a desire to return to management—specifically in Ligue 1—he has recently declined an opportunity from Le Havre AC, as understood by Sacha Tavolieri.
