Present this Sunday during Lyon-Metz, Tony Parker announced that he wanted to help Olympique Lyonnais, currently in the midst of a crisis.

Tony Parker was present this Sunday in the stands of Groupama Stadium in place of the president of Olympique Lyonnais, John Textor, during the draw against Metz (1-1), at the end of the 11th day of the League 1.

The former French basketball player, who served for a time on the board of directors of the Rhone club (2022-2022), was in the front row to witness the new failure of the Lyon team “deeply ill” according to journalist Daniel Riolo.

At the microphone of Prime Videothe former leader of Spurs from San Antonio spoke about the reasons for his presence. “Textor wants me to come back, he asked me to rejoin the board of OL, of Eagle, it would be an interesting return, I want to help. ASVEL and OL are a family. John Textor asked me to sit in his place today. I speak with Tolisso, Lacazette and everyone I know. They work a lot and are not going to give up,” he said. The OL organization chart should therefore continue to change if TP’s comments are to be believed.

As a reminder, general manager Vincent Ponsot has been transferred to the women’s team which will be effective from next January. At the same time, executive president Santiago Cucci has now been announced as leaving.
