From Portugal: Ex-Roma coach Paulo Fonseca in talks with Lille

Former Roma manager Paulo Fonseca may pick up coaching duties after taking a sabbatical year following his exit from the Italian capital.

According to Portuguese outlet Abola, Fonseca is closing in on signing with French side Lille.


The manager’s entourage is currently negotiating Fonseca’s contract with the Ligue 1 club.

Lille are expected to part ways with current boss Jocelyn Gourvennec, effectively introducing Fonseca as the new manager in charge.
