Lyon manager Laurent Blanc has been sacked with the team bottom of Ligue 1.

A 4-1 home defeat by Blanc’s former club Paris St-Germain proved to be his final match in charge of the club, who said Blanc left by “mutual agreement”.

Lyon have only one point from four games this season and Ligue 1’s worst goal difference.

Blanc, 57, was appointed Lyon manager in October and the club ended last season in seventh, outside Ligue 1’s European places.

 It was his first managerial role in France since leaving PSG after the 2015-16 season, although Blanc had managed Al Rayyan in Qatar in the interim.

Blanc previously won three Ligue 1 titles managing PSG and another in charge of Bordeaux.
