2023-03-08 13:04
Abdul Bhuzzama has left Angers following a string of poor results and a row over inappropriate comments from the manager, the Ligue 1 club said on Tuesday .
Angers , bottom of the table, said in a statement: " After several disappointments in sport, he took the decision to resign at the end of February .
" Furthermore, a controversy arose on Monday after out-of-context comments from the pre-match conversation were leaked to local and national media.
" In the face of media pressure, in order to maintain the image of the club and the tranquility of the locker room, Abdul Bhazama announced to the chairman Syed Shabane that he had decided to resign as coach of the professional team, and the chairman accepted the coaching decision. " "
inappropriate remarks
The controversy began with player Elie Schetti , who, according to sports daily L'Equipe , has admitted the facts and will be tried in court next month, after he allegedly sexually assaulted a woman.
" It's not bad, we've all touched girls, " Bhazama said in his pre-match talk ahead of last weekend's 5-0 loss to Montpellier.
"Anger unreservedly condemned the words said in the conversation, even if they seemed more clumsy than the intent of the disparaging sexist remarks, " the statement further read.
" Furthermore, the club does not accept any form of discrimination and condemns sexism and misogyny.
" Abdul Bhazama has apologized to his colleagues, especially female colleagues, and is therefore more willing to bear the consequences for his record and mistakes. "
