This is one of the commitments made by Vincent Labrune, the very evening of his re-election, Tuesday: the reduction of his remuneration at a time when all of professional football must make savings. “It is obvious that the first one who must set an example is the president,” he declared. During his first term, he received 1.2 million euros gross annually.
It remains to be seen how much the drop will be.
This issue should be included on the agenda of the next Board of Directors meeting expected in two or three weeks. It remains to be seen how much the reduction will be. The members of the Board of Directors will have to decide on this issue.
His waiver of his severance pay (around 5 million euros), announced before the Senate committee, should also be validated. In addition, the CA will have to form the League’s office but also proceed with the renewal of the various committees.
Vincent Labrune was re-elected on Tuesday as president of the Professional Football League until 2028. The former president of Olympique de Marseille, 53, won with 14 votes out of 17 against Cyril Linette, his opponent and former head of the sports department of Canal+, the newspaper L’Equipe and the PMU.
