TOULOUSE, France (AP) — Toulouse coach Carles Martínez Novell is leaving the French club at the end of the Ligue 1 season.

He arrived at Toulouse initially as an assistant coach, winning the French Cup in 2023, and was appointed coach the following season.
Martínez Novell led Toulouse to one of its biggest wins when the southern side upset Liverpool 3-2 in a Europa League game in November 2023.
"A big thank you as well to the supporters for their constant support, and to the city for its warm welcome from day one," he said. "I leave with incredible memories that will stay with me forever. Stand up. Always."
The club did not immediately announce a successor.
