Franck Haise explains his decision to extend at OGC Nice | OneFootball

During the international window, it was announced that Franck Haise’s deal at OGC Nice had been extended. The former RC Lens manager’s current deal had been set to expire in 2027. His new deal runs until 2029.

In a press conference attended by Get French Football News, Haise explained the decision to extend, as well as providing an explanation for the timing of the announcement. “I actually extended in August, before the start of the competition. When the competition starts, I never have talks […] I extended because the club and the management offered, in order to avoid the urgency of having to get results and to look to build long-term, to progress things by changing some things. It isn’t simple or easy, but it’s the objective,” said the Nice manager.

He added, “We wanted to get the most important things over with: the work, the first matches, the transfer window, and for the extension, we wanted to announce it when there was the international break and it was a calmer time. It was planned like that.”
