After Gennaro Gattuso, OL made another ex-Italian international their priority for the position of coach of Les Gones. John Textor spoke with Fabio Grosso, former defender of the club.
Laurent Blanc’s successor on the OL bench could well be Italian, but it will probably not be Gennaro Gattuso. The former AC Milan midfielder had given his agreement to the leaders of Les Gones a few days ago, but John Textor finally played for time in the face of internal reservations. The American owner of Lyonnais would now make Fabio Grosso his priority!
As indicated The Team this Wednesday, Textor spoke with Grosso in recent days. The profile of the former left-back, 45 years old, is unanimous within the club. 2006 world champion with Gattuso, he obviously went to Olympique Lyonnais from 2007 to 2009 (he has since become French-speaking) and remains on a successful season with Frosinone, with whom he won Serie B (before deciding to move go).
In addition to the two transalpine technicians, the current bottom of Ligue 1 has two other tracks. Habib Beye was contacted, but Red Star (owned by an American investment fund, 777 Partners) is trying to retain him. Always according to The Team, a fourth avenue is explored. According to the English media 90minTextor, who is a shareholder in Crystal Palace and who had Graham Potter as his first idea, would dream of offering himself the services of Frank Lampard.
