Santini guided Lyon to the French title in 2002

Former Spurs boss Jacques Santini has been appointed manager of Auxerre.
The former France coach takes over from Guy Roux, who stepped down after 44 years in charge on Sunday following Auxerre's French Cup win over Sedan.
Santini, 53, left Spurs "for personal reasons" barely four months after being appointed by the Premiership club.
Santini guided Lyon to the French title in 2002 before taking over as coach of the French national team.
Santini, 53, left Spurs in November after just 13 games in charge amid tensions with the club's former sporting director Frank Arnesen.
