French first division side Nantes have sacked coach Michel Der
Zakarian and his assistant Patrice Gentil, according to a club
spokesman Tuesday.

Nantes are anchored in the second-bottom slot after a bad start to
their league campaign, losing twice and drawing once.

Armenian Der Zakarian, 45, is a former Nantes player. He has been in
charge of the club since 2006.
