While Laurent Blanc’s situation has been widely commented on for several days, a manager from Olympique Lyonnais spoke.
Eighteenth and last in Ligue 1 after four days, Olympique Lyonnais is going through a deep sporting and structural crisis. Laurent Blanc’s situation has been the subject of numerous debates behind the scenes since the start of this international break. With one question pending: will Blanc still be OL coach for the restart match against Le Havre on September 17?
As things currently stand, this hypothesis seems difficult to imagine. The daily newspaper L’Équipe indicated at the start of the week that the 1998 world champion was indeed in the hot seat, but the current situation in the coaching market does not make the task of the Lyon management easier.
The club has therefore not yet officially recorded the departure of Laurent Blanc. Called to comment on the OL situation, Bruno Cheyrou advocates sacred union. ” Unfortunately, it’s not the start to the season that we expected, but a lot has happened over the past month and it takes a little time to settle in, for things to be a little calmer and calm, so that we can really concentrate on work and integrate all the changess, explained the manager in comments taken up by L’Équipe. Unfortunately, we would have preferred to win a few matches, that’s for sure, but perhaps this is the way to go for better days in the months to come », concluded Cheyrou.
