The Montreal Impact have named Remi Garde to replace the fired Mauro Biello as head coach. Garde becomes the team's fifth head coach since it joined MLS in 2012. Garde, 51, earned plaudits as coach at this home club Olympique Lyonnais, winning the French Cup and Super Cup in 2012. He started as an assistant coach at Lyon before taking charge from 2011 to 2014. It did not go as well in his next job with English Premier League club Aston Villa in 2015, where he lasted only five months and left with only two wins in 20 matches.
