Valerien Ismael (50) coached LASK in the ADMIRAL Bundesliga in 2019/20. Since then, the Frenchman has held numerous coaching positions. Most recently, he worked for Blackburn Rovers until February 2026.

He could soon have a job again. According to "Eyüpsupan Haber," he could take over the vacant coaching position at Eyüpspor. He is being considered a candidate there.

Ex-LASK Player in the Squad

Özhan Pulat was recently dismissed there. Ismael would meet an ex-LASK player, Lenny Pintor, but they never worked together in Linz.

Eyüpspor is currently last with three points from six games. Ismael has experience in Turkey; in 2022, he was Besiktas coach for 18 games.
