Vincent Hognon (born 16 August 1974) is a French professional football manager and former player who played as a defender. He is currently in charge of Ligue 1 side Metz.

Club career

Born in Nancy, Hognon started his career at hometown club Nancy in Ligue 2, making his debut during the 1993–94 season. He played a total of nine seasons with the club, three of them in Ligue 1, before moving to Saint-Étienne, who had recently been relegated to Ligue 2 following a fake passport scandal.

During the summer 2007, he signed for Nice, where he played until hanging up his boots in 2009.
