Dominique Bijotat (born 3 January 1961 in Chassignolles, Indre) is a former professional football midfielder from France, who obtained eight international caps (no goals) for the French national team during the 1980s.

Most of his career was spent with AS Monaco, playing there in two separate periods 1976–1987 and 1988–1991. He also spent one season with Bordeaux and eventually ended his playing career at Châteauroux.

International career

He was a member of the national team that won the gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.[1]

Coaching career

After the recent home defeat against Ajaccio, the coach has quit Ligue 2 club LB Châteauroux, the team was in 16th place.[2]

On 4 June 2010 FC Metz officials hired the former LB Chateauroux coach with the objective of leading the team back to Ligue 1 within two years.[3][4]
