As a manager, he led Évian Thonon Gaillard to two successive promotions, winning the Championnat National in his first season and the Ligue 2 title in 2010–11, before resigning in January 2012.

In Their Own Story

The narrative surrounding Bernard Casoni in this source material is brief and functional. It records a singular strategic decision: Apoula Edel, despite being Cameroonian by birth, chose to play international football for Armenia. This choice was made under the direction of French coach Bernard Casoni. The text does not provide details on how they met, the duration of their partnership, or any specific victories achieved during this collaboration. It simply states the fact that Edel played for Armenia under his command.

Reader's Guide

Casoni's managerial career includes stints at Évian (2010–2012), Auxerre (sacked March 2014), Videoton (appointed June 2015, sacked August 2015), and Al-Khor (appointed September 2018).
