Ex-Eintracht coach Toppmoeller appointed Lens boss

SPORTS 16.06.2026

Former Eintracht Frankfurt boss Dino Topmoeller has been appointed Lens coach after Pierre Sage left for Crystal Palace, the French Ligue 1 club said on Tuesday.

Text size:

The 45-year-old German was sacked by Eintracht in January after four years at the helm, during which he guided them to the Champions League.

The French speaker, who was assistant to Julian Nagelsmann at RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich, has signed a deal until 2028 to replace Sage, who joined Palace on Monday.

"Dino has exactly the profile we were looking for," Lens sporting director Jean-Louis Leca said in a statement.

"His experiences in Germany, alongside international players and top-level coaching staff allowed him to enrich his career and refine his tactical approach," Leca added.

Lens will feature in the Champions League next season after opening their Ligue 1 campaign on August 21.
