PARIS (Reuters) - Stade Rennais named Bruno Genesio as coach on Thursday after the 54-year-old signed a two-and-a-half year contract with the Ligue 1 club.

The former Olympique Lyonnais coach joined Rennes, who sit 10th in the standings, following the departure of Julien Stephan this week with the team on a run of eight games in all competitions without a win, including six defeats in a row.
