That’s what we call achieving a real feat. Appointed on an interim basis as OL headed straight for Ligue 2, Pierre Sage managed to change the minds of its leaders. By stringing together excellent results, the former director of the Lyon training center convinced his management to bet on him until at least the end of the season. As a result, OL have now largely ensured their survival and can even claim a European place at the end of the championship.

Enough to allow him to continue the Lyon adventure next season? If according to our information, the trend is clearly towards a prolonged adventure for Pierre Sage, the Portuguese press makes other revelations. According to But Futebol, without a club since his departure from Botafogo, Bruno Lage has an agreement with John Textor to be OL coach next season. Indeed, when signing his contract with the Brazilian club of the Eagle Football group (the same as that of OL), Bruno Lage was guaranteed to subsequently coach Lyon. The Portuguese media also specifies that since his departure from Botafogo he has voluntarily refused offers while waiting for OL who, despite Pierre Sage’s good results, are still thinking about this option. If OL were to extend Pierre Sage this summer, they would have to pay 2.5 million euros to Bruno Lage to compensate him.
