Metz President Bernard Serin Takes Charge of RFC Seraing

Metz President Bernard Serin has been appointed to lead RFC Seraing. This decision was announced by the Belgian club in a statement released on Friday.

What happened?

The departure of Marc Sombreffe, who had been president of RFC Seraing since June 2022, paved the way for Bernard Serin. The Belgian club's statement recalls that Bernard Serin's appointment confirms the Serin family's commitment to the success of RFC Seraing's sports project.

Why is this important for Metz?

This appointment is important for Metz, as it confirms the collaboration between the two clubs. Many players, such as Georges Mikautadze, have already been loaned to RFC Seraing from Metz. The latest is Abdoulaye Agne Ba, who has just been recruited by Metz and is expected to be loaned to RFC Seraing for the season.

What comes next?

Bernard Serin's appointment as president of RFC Seraing could have consequences for Metz's recruitment policy. The club may continue to loan players to RFC Seraing to help them progress quickly.

Currently, Metz is 18th in Ligue 1 with 17 points, 3 wins, 8 draws, and 23 losses in 34 games. The club has scored 32 goals and conceded 76, giving them a goal difference of -44. Metz's last result was a 0-0 draw against Nice on May 17, 2026.
