STRASBOURG, France, January 12. LAURE Manaudou looks to be on the move again after changing training camps at least twice over the past six months, according to reporting in the Guardian Unlimited.
Manaudou is in negotiations with the Mulhouse club according to France's Laurent Horter. Mulhouse is the club of Benjamin Stasiulis, reportedly Manaudou's new beau.
"Laure showed the desire to come to Mulhouse and we are negotiating, it's going nicely," Horter told radio France Bleu Alsace as reported by the Guardian Unlimited. "She is not only a swimmer, she is also a star. It is normal that there are some little problems but they are being resolved. However, she is happy to come to Mulhouse."
After leaving longtime coach Philippe Lucas to move closer to now ex-boyfriend Luca Marin of Italy, Manaudou returned to France to train in Amberieu-en-Bugey with her older brother.
This newest move would put her under the tutelage of Lionel Horter, who coached Roxana Maracineanu to a world title in the 200 back in 1998.
