Montpellier appoints Camara as coach to avoid relegation

Montpellier has appointed Zoumana Camara, a former Paris Saint-Germain defender, as their new head coach as the club struggles at the bottom of Ligue 1, having lost nine consecutive matches. This marks Camara's first head coaching position after previously serving as an assistant and youth coach at PSG. The team currently sits 12 points from safety with only six matches remaining in the season. Camara, who enjoyed a successful playing career at PSG, is tasked with preparing the club for the future amid this challenging situation. His first match in charge will be against Angers. The previous coach, Jean-Louis Gasset, was sacked after a brief five-month tenure due to the club's poor performance.
