New technical director of OL, Matthieu Louis-Jean gave an update on the new organization chart. Formerly in the data cell, Benjamin Charier, is now responsible for recruitment.
Expected for several weeks, the restructuring of OL was officially confirmed this Tuesday. Matthew Louis-Jean is the new technical director, Daniel Conger arrives as sports coordinator, and we also learn that the position of recruiting manager has a new representative.
Still in charge of the transfer window
Arrival in summer 2023, Benjamin Charier was previously integrated into the “data” cell of Olympique Lyonnais. He is now being promoted to a more important role. “We make decisions together by comparing our experiences and ideas. Doing it alone seems to me to be an outdated operation in addition to being risky […] Benjamin will be in charge of the daily and operational management of scouting, but no targeted player put forward by the unit will be recruited without my observation, Louis-Jean said in an interview with club media. It would not make sense for me to define a strategy without participating in its implementation. I will continue to manage the transfer window.“
The Rhone leader, who has gained ground following this reorganization, also mentioned the arrival of Congré. “He immediately joined the culture of performance and excellence, which is important to us. He is a person of high quality, at the end of his career, he chose to train on many areas such as mental preparation This is what impressed us the most. he appreciated. He is curious, wants to understand, and progress. We feel like he’s the right person to help this group.”
