As the summer transfer window closes in a few hours, Olympique Lyonnais, who announced the arrival of Paul Akouokou this Friday evening, wanted to react, through a press release signed John Textorto the latest developments in its market concerning the DNCG and the seizure of accounts by Jean-Michel Aulas: “We are not happy to start our managerial term with spending limits in our first transfer window. It’s not as fun as I would have liked, but it’s our current reality. The decisions of the DNCG may seem painful, but their concerns for the financial health of our club are certainly justified.then affirmed Textor who wished to communicate “in order to prevent certain voices who intend to tarnish the integrity of good people, confuse our community and harm our club.”
“The financial health regulators in football, the DNCG, challenged us to execute our business plan in an austere manner, as was necessary to restore our foundations which had been seriously damaged after three years of sporting disappointments and reduced income. Our foundations have also been heavily impacted by rising debt levels, linked to the impacts of COVID, the consequences of which continue today. With the decisions of the DNCG behind us, I can sincerely say that we work perfectly together, and their role in the financial oversight of our club has already allowed us to position ourselves towards a more promising future for the club. »wrote the president of Olympique Lyonnais.
