Daniel Congré, new OL sports coordinator
Even if he has not officially been presented as sports coordinator, Daniel Congré has already taken on this role. He made the trip with the rest of the OL staff for the match against Hoffenheim.
Since the announcement of his future taking office, dead calm reigned around Daniel Conger. Supposed to become the new sports coordinator of OL by digitally replacing David friiothe former sports director laid off, Congré had still not officially taken up his duties. The club has not yet communicated on it, but the former central defender will wear this costume. Daniel Conger has already taken up his duties since the beginning of the week and traveled to Hoffenheim with the rest of the OL staff as well as the Lyon managers as an observation phase.
Asked about his presence, Pierre Sage welcomed the new member of the Rhone organization chart. “We know that he will help us a lot to be efficient. We are all in the same logic of being there to help the team, help the club and ensure that all together, all the energies multiplied and not added make to ensure that everything is efficient.”
“It will give us another angle of view on our practices”
If Daniel's exact role Conger seems quite vague at first glance, Pierre Sage confirmed that the former player Montpellier et Toulouse was going to have a daily presence at training. Even if he may not intervene directly during the sessions. Having not taken on the vacant role of sports director, the young retiree will have “different missions” of Sage, “but at the same time complementary on certain points and in very fine collaboration on others. I think that he will bring a lot to the staff and the team in the relationship and the proximity with the players and he will also give us a another angle of view for us the staff in relation to their perception, because they will perhaps be less active during the sessions, less engaged in the different times in which we are with the players and with their hindsight, they will be able to better analyze our practices and perhaps ask yourself more questions to continue to progress.”
