The news caused a stir this Monday. In response to the enormous financial difficulties encountered for very long months by French football, the president of the French Football Federation, Philippe Diallo, announced this Monday the end of the Professional Football League and the upcoming establishment of a commercial club of clubs. A decision which acts the abolition of the post of Vincent Labrune. The current boss of the League could leave next fall.
If the entourage of the manager assured that he was satisfied with the announcement made by Philippe Diallo, the consequences are therefore directly impacting for his professional future. Journalist at The teamÉtienne Moatti spoke of the subject on the media chain. “For him it can be an opportunity. For the past few months when TV rights have been decreased, he has taken dear Vincent Labrune. »»
And the observer to continue his presentation: “It is undoubtedly deserved for a large part but I think that it is also a little bit at the end of this story. I think this change of structure can allow him to leave. I have the feeling that he does not want to hang on at all. Besides, he was himself a little at the base of this idea of the first French league. »»
A project that suits the boss of the LFP
It would therefore be very good that Vincent Labrune would look at this upheaval, despite the very likely end of his mission.
“It is a project that suits him on principles because he is rather a liberal. He is someone who believes in big clubs, a football-business. But obviously, it does not work with a salaried president. I think it can allow him to leave next fall saying that it was put back on the rails (…). »»
The former leader of Olympique de Marseille should therefore take advantage of the end of the LFP in the form of an association law 1901, to go through a door much less than that which could have expected it in other circumstances.
