“Peter Bosz has been put on temporary leave,” the club said in a statement.
Olympique Lyonnais have decided to appoint Laurent Blanc as head coach until 30 June 2024.”
Blanc, a world and European champion player with France, won the Ligue 1 title in his three seasons as coach of PSG from 2013 to 2016.
He also led Bordeaux to the French league title in 2009.
