Bordeaux have named former Sunderland and Brighton boss Gus Poyet as their new head coach.
The Uruguayan, whose appointment was announced shortly after Les Girondins beat Nantes 1-0 in Ligue 1 on Saturday evening, had most recently been in charge of Shanghai Shenhua in the Chinese Super League.
A tweet from Bordeaux said Poyet would be assisted at the Matmut Atlantique by his former Tottenham team-mate Mauricio Taricco, and Fernando Menegazzo.


He succeeds Jocelyn Gourvennec, who left his post on Thursday, in the wake of a 2-0 defeat by Caen.
