Former Pyramids Coach Sebastien Desabre Gets New Job In Morocco

Former Pyramids FC coach Sebastien Desabre has been appointed as new Wydad Casablanca head coach, replacing Zoran Manojlovic.

Wydad parted ways with Manojlovic five days ago after failing to meet the Botola league champion’s lofty expectations.

Desabre joined Pyramids in June last year but his stint at the Egyptian Premier League side failed to last more than five months after his resignation as Uganda national team head coach.

The Frenchman is expected to report to work on Tuesday after a press conference and will be taken around the stadium by the members of the club’s board.

It is the second stint in charge for Desabre, who first coached Wydad in 2016-2017, when he oversaw 16 games, achieving 9 wins, 6 draws, and one loss.

The 43-year-old coach has been a journeyman for his brief stints at ESC Rocheville (France) as an assistant, ASEC Mimosas (Cote d’Ivoire), CS Garoua (Cameroon) and ES Tunis (Tunisia).

Stints at Clube Recreativo Desportivo Libolo (Angola), Dubai Club (United Arab Emirates), JS Saoura (Algeria) and Ismaily also litter his CV.

Desabre is under Belgian agent Joe Kanga who runs Sports Company named One Goal PRO that also handles other prominent coaches like Herve Renard, Alain Giresse and Hugo Broos, who led Cameroon to Africa title in 2017.
