Paulo Fonseca leaves Lyon for Sporting CP

Foot Mercato reports that Lyon have officially announced Paulo Fonseca’s departure as head coach. The 53-year-old Portuguese manager is set to return to his home country and take charge of Sporting CP. The report presents the move as completed, with Lyon confirming Fonseca’s exit and identifying Sporting as his next club. It also refers to the transfer fee involved, although the available text does not provide the amount. Fonseca’s move therefore represents a confirmed change of club rather than a rumour or ongoing negotiation.
