In two weeks, the next board meeting of Eagle, now owner of OL, will take place. John Textor would intend to claim the head of Bruno Cheyrou there, which Jean-Michel Aulas could oppose. At least to put his resignation in the balance?
Touched by its elimination from the Coupe de France in Nantes (0-1) on Wednesday, Olympique Lyonnais saw its last option for European qualification fly away. It would now take a miracle for Les Gones to return to the continental scene in 2023-24, for the first time in three years. And this, of course, will have internal consequences. Which could be terrible, according to The Team of the day.
Cheyrou in Textor’s sights
Indeed, the sports daily announces that John Textor will demand change at the next Eagle board meeting, which will take place on April 23 in … Lyon. In particular, he would have Bruno Cheyrou in his sights, whom he would like to replace with a man of his own. Except that the former midfielder is the protege of Jean-Michel Aulas, who recently announced in an interview with Le Monde that he would be ready to resign if a restructuring was imposed on him which he did not validate. However, he wanted Cheyrou, head of the recruitment unit, to eventually become sports director. In two weeks, OL could therefore experience a major earthquake!
