In financial difficulty, the Girondins de Bordeaux were administratively relegated to National 2. The fault lies in salaries that are far too high according to Marius Trésor, a former defender of the scapular club who regrets the descent into hell of the Marine et Blanc.
The management of Gérard Lopez at the Girondins de Bordeaux does not simply make the club's supporters scream at the scapular. Regularly in the press, former players also speak out to denounce the situation of the Bordeaux club, administratively relegated to National 2 due to its poor financial management. Despite this, Gérard Lopez is still in charge and this is clearly not good news according to Marius Trésor.
Questioned by the Radio des Collinesthe former defender of the Blues and the Girondins did not mince his words on the management of Bordeaux. He particularly regrets the colossal salaries which have been distributed to the players in recent years and takes this responsibility from Gérard Lopez of course but also from his sports director Admar Lopes, the two responsible for the financial crisis at the Navy and White according to him.
Marius Tresor takes on Admar Lopes
“When we see the club now, in National 2, from time to time we pinch ourselves saying that it's not possible, something has happened… And there, I'm afraid that we will or for a little while. What if I felt this decadence coming? With everything that happened in Bordeaux, I think it was predictable. We saw Mr. Lopez arrive, especially with his friend, the sports manager, Admar Lopes… The players who came to the Girondins de Bordeaux had fairly exorbitant salaries compared to what was happening before. We wondered where we were going… But we really didn’t think the team was going to fall so low” regretted the former Girondins de Bordeaux defender, who now advocates patience before seeing the club back at the highest level. Because even if Bordeaux is 3rd in National 2, the comeback promises to be long and perilous.
