On Canal+, the former defender and sporting director of the Girondins de Bordeaux, Alain Rochespoke about the situation of Strasbourg which let its coach leave at Chelsea, and therefore the current position of Mark Keller.
“Strasbourg, they had validated the construction of the stadium/grandstand, before Covid, plus the training center at the same time. It’s still 25 million euros, it’s not nothing. Covid arrives, you are forced to sell players to recover some money, Marc Keller put some personal money back in… At one point… When you recruit your best players every year, you are not sure of recruiting good players behind, there is always an element of risk because you recruit with less money. I am not against Marc Keller selling the club, it seems logical if he wants to maintain it and perpetuate it at a certain level in Ligue 1. I understand that it bothers everyone. But after Rosenior left, I found that Marc was in great difficulty. We sense in his last press conference that he is offended… It is certain that if Marc Keller leaves, the supporters will surely find themselves with an English President… I think that Marc must be asking himself questions at the moment, but you don’t leave like that in the middle of the season.
