While the January transfer window officially opened its doors on January 1, Bruno Genesio approaches this winter window being completely serene. All thanks to a convincing LOSC squad which should remain very stable, both in terms of arrivals and departures.
Dead calm during the month of January?
Now is not the time for major maneuvers and chaos on the LOSC side in January, and the serenity displayed by Bruno Genesio when it was necessary to discuss the transfer window, this Friday at a press conference, confirms it a little. “ I'm not worriedaffirmed the Lille coach, convinced that his group will not be destabilized by this transfer window. There are players who are under contract, players who are at the end of their contract, some who risk leaving us and others who may arrive, I have no idea yet. But what I see is that all players – whatever their personal situation – are team-oriented, including those who play little or not. They fully participate in this spirit that emerges from this group, that's what interests me so I have no concerns about this January transfer window. »
If in terms of departures, despite the contractual situations of some (Jonathan David, Angel Gomes, Rémy Cabella, etc.), everything should remain calm, the recruitment unit will not be agitated in all directions either. “ I'm not really the style of coach who wants to stack players at the same level. afterwardsassures Bruno Genesio. Today, we have two players in each position, or even three in some. Whether in quality or quantity, we are rather well provided. »
Still, in a transfer window renowned for “opportunities” and “adjustments”, LOSC is not immune to some movements. “ Circumstances can lead to departures or arrivals, with desires and questions about playing timecontinues the 58-year-old technician. At that point, we will have to be reactive but we have people who work for this all year round, I trust them. We are in permanent contact with the president and Jérémy Colsonthe head of the recruitment unit, to deal with any eventuality. » In such a serene climate, it is difficult not to share the tranquility that reigns at Domaine de Luchin.
