On the OL sidelines for a year, Pierre Sage has established himself through his method and his results. Enough to gain the trust of its president, John Textor, who was able to thank him as he should.
Last Thursday evening, he celebrated his first year on the OL bench with dignity. With a brilliant success, one more, on the Karabagh pitch (4-1). Pierre Sage is definitely having a great adventure with the Lyon professionals, he who was just a few months ago assistant coach at La Duchère, then at Red Star.
We know the rest. Laurent Blanc, then Fabio Grosso sidelined, the inability of Lyon's leaders to bring back Bruno Genesio and the ultimately unsuccessful candidacy of Jean-François Vulliez, Sage's predecessor at the head of the Gones training center. Sage takes the reins with two defeats to start, including a 3-0 in Marseille, before finding favor in the eyes of the decision-makers during a convincing success against Toulouse (3-0). He will no longer leave the OL sidelines.
50 times more
As the daily L'Equipe clarified this Sunday, sports promotion was also fueled by a phenomenal salary promotion. Having moved to 50,000 euros per month at the end of his interim period, he took advantage of a match against neighboring Saint-Etienne, in U17, spent in the company of its president John Textor, who high-fived him, to…double his salary in a simple promise. Outfit. Sage now has a six-figure salary, almost fifty times more than what he received more than a year ago, at the start of the 2023-2024 season. But that was before. Before OL return to the heights of the L1 and enjoy success in the Europa League with Pierre Sage on their bench.
