Former Reims manager Will Still (31) has joined RC Lens as their new head coach, the Ligue 1 side said on Monday.
The Belgium-born Englishman has joined the club on a three-year contract, Lens said in a statement.
Still was appointed as Reims manager when he was 30, becoming the youngest manager in Europe's top five soccer leagues. Reims, under him, had a 19-match unbeaten run in all competitions. He left the club in May.
"Will was our top priority to take over as coach," Lens Managing Director Pierre Dreossi said. "(He is) a unifying personality obsessed with winning. A true enthusiast, a conqueror and a fine tactician."
