Le Havre Appoint Yacine Alaoui President and CEO in Leadership Overhaul

Le Havre appointed Yacine Alaoui president and chief executive Thursday, giving him authority over all of the club’s sporting and administrative activities.

The board also appointed Quentin Rauzier interim sporting director through the end of the season, according to the club’s announcement.

Le Havre said the board had finalized changes initiated earlier in the week, citing the team’s sporting situation and differing views over the direction of the project.

Owner Ben Guill, of Blue Crow Sports Group, said Alaoui would have the ownership group’s full support. The statement thanked the previous leadership, coach Didier Digard and his staff for their work.
