Montpellier recently announced the return of Patrice Lair to lead its women's team after a chaotic season that saw the club struggle for survival in the women's league. Lair, who has extensive experience in women's football, previously managed Montpellier from 2005 to 2007. He replaces Jean-Louis Saez, who took over as interim coach at the end of last season after Yannick Chandioux was dismissed in March. At 64 years old, Lair comes from Deportivo Toluca in Mexico, where he had the opportunity to work with renowned players like Amandine Henry. Lair's goal is clear: to turn things around and bring Montpellier back to the top of French women's football. The club has undergone significant changes recently, including the sale by the Nicollin family to Crux Football, led by Bex Smith. With Lair at the helm, supporters are hoping for a revival and a more promising season.
