“Don’t put yourself out there like that!”, Rothen tackles Létang, who overshadows Genesio too much

Before the poster for the 10th day of Ligue 1 between Lille and Lyon this Friday evening at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium, Jérôme Rothen regretted that the president of Losc Olivier Létang took all the media attention at the expense of his coach, Bruno Genesio.

Le Losc back in business. After a last week spent on cloud nine with a victory on the pitch of Atlético de Madrid in the Champions League then against neighboring Lens, in Félix-Bollaert, the Mastiffs welcome Lyon this Friday evening for the 10th day of Ligue 1. The opportunity for Bruno Genesio and his players to sign an eighth match in a row without defeat in all competitions.

And to collect all the honors? The answer is no for Jérôme Rothen. The left-hander believes that his president Olivier Létang is overshadowing him by occupying a little too much media space.

For Rothen, “Genesio necessarily suffers from what its president shows”

“The problem is that President Létang turned off Bruno Genesio's light, declared the ex-Parisian on Friday in Rothen s'ignée on RMC. He necessarily suffers from what his president shows. When after having typed the Real, you type Atlético de Madrid and it's your president who goes on TV sets rather than the coach or the players and he refuses all interviews with Genesio, but he goes there, it's not 'is not possible.”

If Jérôme Rothen recognizes that the boss of Losc “does good things” and that “the credit goes to him too”, he therefore allows himself a little advice: “Don't put yourself out there like that!”
