COACH PROFILE PATRICK VALLÉE DOB: 4 October 1962 (Age 51) Nationality: French Teams formerly coached: DR Congo, AS Beauvais-Oise B, Pacy Vallée-d'Eure Football, Étoile FC, AFC Compiègne Honours (as senior coach): S.League (2010), Singapore League Cup (2010) •
Hailing from Rouen, France, Vallée began his coaching career as a youth coach at his hometown club FC Rouen in 1988.
•
He then joined Pacy Vallée-d'Eure Football and was promoted to Assistant Coach in 1998. He later had coaching stints in DR Congo, Qatar SC and AS Beauvais-Oise B before returning to Pacy Vallée-d'Eure in 2007.
•
Vallée was first introduced to Singapore football after being appointed as head coach of newly-formed Étoile FC rd in 2010, where he famously led the team to the S.League title and League Cup, and came in 3 in the Singapore Cup.
•
Returning to France, he led AFC Compiègne to the Round of 32 of the Coupe de France, where he encountered Ligue 1 side and then-defending champions Lille OSC. Despite dragging the tie to extra time, th Compiègne eventually succumbed to a 114 minute Gianni Bruno goal. Current Jaguars Aurélien Hérisson and Sébastien Etiemble were part of the Compiègne first eleven.
•
The Lille OSC starting lineup for the match featured French internationals Mickaël Landreau, Mathieu Debuchy, Lucas Digne, Dmitri Payet and Belgian international Eden Hazard. Former England international Joe Cole also featured in the same match.
•
Vallée made a comeback to Singapore football in 2013 with Tanjong Pagar United, and was handed the task of bringing the club back to the upper echelons of Singapore football.
