Olympique Lyonnais remains under threat of relegation to Ligue 2 if its finances are not quickly recovered. Demoted as a precautionary measure two months ago, the Rhone club must still make up a colossal deficit to meet the requirements of the DNCG.
With the departures of Maxence Caqueret, Gift Orban and Jeffinho, Lyon's coffers were replenished to the tune of 31 million euros. However, this remains insufficient in the face of the gaping hole of 175 million euros. The probable departures of Ernest Nuamah and Nemanja Matic could ease the situation a little more, but the solution could come from a major sacrifice, namely the transfer of the lease of the Meyzieu training center, which could bring in up to 150 million euros.
John Textor is therefore under pressure to find the necessary funds and avoid the decline. If the American president appeared calm a few months earlier, the future of the club in Ligue 1 now rests on the success of his financial maneuvers.
