The 54-year-old will succeed Sonia Bompastor, who confirmed her move to Chelsea last month.

He’s spent the last three seasons however, in Turin managing Juventus, sweeping up five trophies with the Serie A Femminile side.
“I’m extremely honoured to be part of such an exceptional organisation as Olympique Lyonaaid, the world leader in women’s soccer,” he said.
