Remi Garde, who led Olympique Lyon
to their first trophy in four years during his debut season as
coach, has extended his contract until 2014, the Ligue 1 club
announced on their website on Friday.
The 46-year-old Garde, a former Lyon and Arsenal player, had
signed for only one year when he took charge last summer.
The seven-time French champions won the French Cup in April,
after failing to lift a trophy in the previous three seasons.
However, Lyon failed to qualify for the Champions League for
the first time since 2000 after finishing fourth in Ligue 1 and
will feature in the Europa League next season.
