Marama Vahirua, who scored 19 goals in 96 matches for FC Lorient, has started his coaching career with the U17 of Nice and was an assistant coach at Grenoble since 2023. The appointment of Vahirua as U19 coach is a strategic move, allowing the club to maintain a consistent coaching presence across both age groups. He will also be able to provide occasional guidance to the U17 team.
Vahirua's experience as a former striker will enable him to offer guidance to young players with attacking potential, helping them develop their skills. This move comes after Loïc Fievet took over as coach of the women's team at RC Lens.
