Official | City Football Group part ways with Laurent Batlles as ESTAC Troyes boss
Ligue 1 side ESTAC Troyes this morning announced the departure of manager Laurent Batlles by mutual agreement.
Troyes currently sit 15th in the French top flight table, 1 point away from relegation and had put in an impressive first half of the campaign for a newly-promoted club, which was bought by City Football Group last year.
Erick Mombaerts will be in the interim coach whilst ESTAC search for the possibility of a longer-term replacement.
Batlles becomes the 2nd managerial casualty in Ligue 1 this season, following the departure of Claude Puel from St Étienne.
