The 59-year-old took over in 2024 following relegation and immediately led the Breton side back into the top flight as second-tier champions.

“There’s one main reason — the lack of trust from the management since I arrived,” Pantaloni told local newspaper Ouest-France.
“I still feel this distrust, and therefore I refuse to work under these conditions.”
