“Discussions on a possible entry into the capital exist, they are only at their beginnings. There is nothing else to add at the moment,” entrusts the German Oliver Kahn to the JDD.

We learn that Kahn sounded out his former Bayern teammate Willy Sagnol who was coach of the Girondins de Bordeaux from 2014 to 2016.
In addition, the eight-time German champion would rely on funds from Saudi Arabia to finance his plan to buy FCGB.

In addition, he is developing his professional network in Saudi Arabia, and reportedly plans to go to Bordeaux soon to meet with Gérard Lopez. It could also be an opportunity for Gérard Lopez to come to the Haillan training center.
