Toulon rugby director Philippe Saint-Andre looks set to succeed Marc Lievremont as France coach after the upcoming World Cup.

Club president MouradBoudjellal is resigned to losing Saint-Andre in October, but spoke of his pride after Les Bleus came calling to his club.

"If things go as expected, it's him who will take charge of the France team after the World Cup," Boudjellal told Midi Olympique, the newspaper which broke the story on Monday.

Midi Olympique reported on Monday that Saint-Andre's elevation to the national team role will be confirmed at a press conference on Thursday.

Questioned on the issue by L'Equipe, he said: "It's been in place for a while.
