Nantes on the brink of ligue 2 relegation as managerial chaos ensues

Nantes' players slumped in despair after their latest defeat to Rennes in Ligue 1, a grim reflection of the team's fortunes under the club's revolving door of managers. With 23 appointments since Waldemar Kita bought the team in 2007, the eight-time league champions are staring down the barrel of relegation to Ligue 2.

Chaos at the top, disaster on the pitch

Current boss Vahid Halilhodzic, a 73-year-old veteran of the game, has been brought back in for a second stint, tasked with saving Nantes from the drop. But his lack of enthusiasm for the challenge is palpable.
