FC Metz Announces New Manager
Gregory Proment has officially been unveiled as the new manager of FC Metz after their disappointing relegation from Ligue 1 last season. Proment is a name that is known and loved by the supporters already and this appointment comes with an unbelievable level of fanfare as they want to see him succeed. Proment holds the record for appearances with FC Metz with over 230 appearances in his time as a player. Proment came through the youth academy at the club before joining the senior team in 1997. He was a key player at the club through 2006 when he ultimately left to join Caen. In 2012, after seeing his childhood club fall in relegation to the third division, he made a return to the club to help them get promoted back to Ligue 2. After achieving that goal, he hung up his boots for good and returned to his old club Caen to accept a role as an assistant coach. After putting in his time as an assistant it was his childhood club that once again has turned to him to save them after another relegation. This time though, he will be taking over as manager. A fan favorite for his dedication over his time with the club, and his immense loyalty to the club that saw him begin and spend most of his career with made him an easy and popular choice to take over.
