After OL’s nightmarish summer, John Textor has decided to dismiss Laurent Blanc, as RMC announced. Gones supporters have been on fire for a few days on the hypothetical arrival of Igor Tudor on the bench.
It’s over for Laurent Blanc. While Olympique Lyonnais is last in Ligue 1 with one point in 4 league games, John Textor, an owner himself responsible for this situation due to the DNCG sanction, has decided to part ways with Laurent Blanc. As RMC indicates on Wednesday, the departure of the “President”, who arrived in October 2022, is recorded in the mind of the American businessman.
The Rhone club is looking for a coach (and not an interim) and contrary to what was announced a few weeks ago, Bruno Lage, stationed at Botafogo (another Textor club with RWD Molenbeek) , is not among the priority options. The Team specified a few days ago that OL were looking for a modern and French-speaking coach, citing Thiago Motta and Will Still. The Belgian Karel Geraerts, who left the Union Saint-Gilloise last June, would be in the small papers, according to the Jeunesfooteux Twitter account.
The supporters go around the free coaches capable of taking over the reins of Les Gones and the name of Igor Tudor comes up insistently. The Croatian technician is also free of any contract after leaving OM. His aggressive style of play and the authority he imposes on the players were praised throughout last season. A good idea to wake up Alexandre Lacazette and his teammates?
