Auxerre has announced the signing of Will Still as the new head coach for the next two seasons. After being dismissed from Southampton in November 2025, Still returns to Ligue 1 with great ambitions. The Burgundy club reached an agreement with the 33-year-old coach, who also has a one-year option. He succeeds Christophe Pélissier, whose departure was confirmed despite Auxerre's survival in Ligue 1. Will Still, although young, already has significant experience in the French Championship. He made a name for himself on the bench at Reims, where he managed to go 19 matches unbeaten. After two seasons at Reims, he joined Lens, where he finished his only season in charge of the club in eighth place in Ligue 1. With this new chapter at Auxerre, fans hope that Still can continue to build on the club's recent successes and aim for higher goals in the French league.
