Christmas surely had a bitter taste for the Castonetian technician Frédéric Hantz, who coached Rodez Aveyron football between 1998 and 2001. After three months at the helm of the Al-Khor team in Qatar, the coach was dismissed, last December 25.
The move was made following Al-Khor’s 6-1 loss to Al-Duhail SC on December 22. Despite a victorious start (5-1) against Al Sailiya in the Stars Cup (the equivalent of the League Cup), Frédéric Hantz’s team continued in draws and defeats in the league until December 14, where she won her only game of the season (1-0) against Al Wakrah. Al-Khor currently occupies the penultimate place in the standings of the Qatari Premier Division.
The Aveyronnais’ first foreign experience was brief, he who had not coached since leaving Metz in May 2018.
