Sébastien Serge Louis Desabre (born 2 August 1976) is a French professional football manager and former player,[3] who is the current manager of Ligue 2 club Chamois Niortais.

Nicknamed The Florist as a player,[3] he served as manager of the Uganda national team from 28 December 2017[4] until 7 July 2019.[2]

Managerial career

Desabre was born in Valence.[4] His past managerial jobs include ES Cannet-Rocheville, ASEC Mimosas, Coton Sport and Espérance de Tunis. He was also head coach of Ismaily SC in the Egyptian Premier League.[4] He has also coached Recreativo do Libolo, Dubai Club, JS Saoura and Wydad AC.[4][5]

In December 2017, prior to the 2018 African Nations Championship competition, he signed a multiple-year contract with the Federation of Uganda Football Associations to manage the Uganda national team at a gross monthly salary of $25,000.[6][7][8] He replaced Milutin Sredojević, who left in July 2017 to become coach of the Orlando Pirates.[4] On 17 November 2018, the Cranes qualified for the 2019 African Cup of Nations after defeating Cape Verde.[9] In November 2018, the Uganda national team was nominated with five others for the CAF Men's national team of the year award 2018.[10]

Uganda qualified for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations from 21 June until 19 July 2019. The team advanced out of Group A, to the round of 16, in second position, behind group leader and tournament hosts, Egypt. However, the team was eliminated after losing 1–0 to Senegal on 5 July 2019.[11] The following day, in a statement released by FUFA in Kampala, Desabre's contract with the Cranes was terminated by mutual consent despite the success.[1][12]

On 8 July 2019, Desabre was announced as the new head coach of the Egyptian Premier League club Pyramids FC.[13] On 19 January 2020, Desabre rejoined Wydad AC.[14]
