In the show Football day on Canal+ Foot. Sydney Gova, Former Lyon player, spoke on the current situation of Olympique Lyonnais, who accuses colossal debts of around 540 million euros. The subject was: Lyon by the abyss.
“If I’m really afraid if Lyon doesn’t play the Champions League? I would not say if Lyon does not play the champion league because I think that even if Lyon had been qualified in the Champions League, the club’s financial situation was catastrophic. So the Champions League, it increases a little, it would have made it possible to postpone the deadline a little, which John Textor has done very well since he arrived. But in the end there is still a financial chasm which makes it will have to fill it one day or another. ”
Also present in the show, the former Girondins de Bordeaux player Paul Baysse reacted to this situation. It was of course directly affected in Bordeaux when there were the financial concerns.
-“If I lived it in Bordeaux? Yes. If it scares me? Well yes, especially when you see figures like that, when you hear about completely mind -blowing figures and there is not necessarily a way out. Even if there is a Champions League, which will probably not be, it will be complicated. So imagine without Champions League, it will be complicated for Lyon. ”
