He was invited as a central figure in the Lille qualification in 16es of the Coupe de France final in Marseille (1-1, 4-3 on the tabs). Roberto De Zerbi only had the attitude of Olivier Létang, guilty of having virulently addressed the fourth referee. This is not the first time that the Lille president has been heard vituperating on the pitch in a role which is reminiscent of Jean-Michel Aulas, another fan of maximum pressure. The two men have many similarities, notably that of placing their club at the center of their concerns in attitudes which, sometimes, exasperate but say everything about their involvement. Understanding this multi-card who has become a central figure in French football, in turn midfielder, financial director, sportsman, general, agent then president, is to return to the sources of a rare requirement, of an ambition deeply rooted in his body and of a desire to rise professionally. In his sport or elsewhere.
