Gaston Tchangana is a Congolese football manager.[1] He has been in charge of the Congo national team three times.

Career

He had a brief period in charge of the Congo national team in 2001 before being replaced by Noël Minga after a FIFA World Cup qualifying defeat against Tunisia.[1] In 2005, he succeeded Christian Létard as Congo manager, initially alongside former national team captain Célestin Mouyabi, after Létard criticised the Fédération Congolaise de Football.[1] Tchangana was replaced by Noël Tosi the following year,[2][3] but returned for a third stint in charge in 2007 after Tosi was dismissed.[4][5] Congo failed to qualify for the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations and he was replaced by Ivica Todorov.[6]
