Olympique Lyonnais is experiencing a dazzling start to the season! After its three victories in three matches, OL is currently the only club, with PSG, to have made a full box since the start of the championship.
After having come close to relegation this summer, the Rhone club, in big financial difficulties, had to sell players from its workforce to bail out its boxes. On the recruitment side, the Lyon management has bet on transfers at reduced prices.
And it must be said that the bet is currently winning. Between the new recruits aligned and the young players from the training center, like the young Khalis Merah, OL is rather solid at the moment.
Christophe Dugarry not convinced by OL
But the fear of a lack of regularity hangs over the Lyonnais workforce. Christophe Dugarry, 1998 world champion and consultant on RMC, is not at all confident for the Gones. The reason? The absence of a center-forward in the Rhone workforce: ”
OL? It won't last, that's for sure. How do you want it to last? You don't have a center-forward … I still find that for kids who are young, I think of Merah, I think of Morton, Fofana of course, Karabec, they have something in the feet “, he said.
“Today, we are a championship of training center, post-training so we will have to accept it. We will have to do with it. What I saw about the three games from Lyon. It will not last, for sure because despite everything, a season is complicated, especially when you are a team that plays the European Cup “, He added.
Will Olympique Lyonnais give reason to Christophe Dugarry or will he succeed in thwarting the forecasts? Response at the end of the championship next May.
