Former Coventry City midfielder Jean Guy Wallemme has been appointed as the new coach of Auxerre FC.
The 44 year old had been the manager of the Congo national side since August after managing a number of French lower division clubs.
He takes over an Auxerre side which are just one place off the bottom of the Lique 1 table.
There has been no mention from the French club if Wallemme will continue with managing Congo who have 2014 World Cup qualifying matches coming up.
