Last in Ligue 1 and on the brink of collapse, Olympique Lyonnais is going through the worst season in its history. A situation which does not leave club lovers indifferent. After local idol Juninho made the decision to bring his skills to John Textor in an attempt to turn things around, other former OL greats spoke out on social media.
Sidney Govou is always inclined to speak about his former club. “I am not a sweet dreamer but I want to be one in order to hope!wrote the former attacker on his X account (ex-Twitter). 20 matches, 10 victories to stay in Ligue 1. Unless four teams in front of us collapse. Which is not impossible! Become worthy of this jersey again please (not yesterday’s). »
“This club has not lost its winning mentality”
Govou is not the only OL legend to have broken the silence. Lisandro Lopez, who made the club’s heyday more than a decade ago, also made very strong comments. “I can tell you that you can!!! Even at the most critical moment, when we can’t find the way out, when it seems like there are no more answers… I know you can!! This club has not lost its fabulous character, its history, its winning mentality!!! Talent alone is not enough, but I know that in addition to talent, there are warriors behind who will win the battle. Push, stay united, fight with dignity and self-love… and above all with confidence!! I know you can… Get on that boat, float it and get it to port! With all my love, OL… And especially with you until the end! »concluded the Argentinian.
