The president of Olympique Lyonnais Jean-Michel Aulas decided, after the draw at home against RC Strasbourg (1-1, 25th day of Ligue 1), to occupy the media space. His tweets of the day were followed by an interview published on the official Gones website. And if his purpose was obviously to re-mobilize the troops before the final sprint of the season, the Rhone boss did not hesitate to send a new spade to Olympique de Marseille.
“Marseille’s victory last night (against Lille) – which we have just beaten in the Coupe de France – positions us too far from 2nd place, which obviously makes this objective difficult to achieve from now on. However, it should be noted that Olympique de Marseille did not play a European Cup this year, which gave it a definite advantage in the championship and that it also went into the red again on the economic plan relative to the FFP (the newspaper L’Équipe said a few days ago that the operating deficit over two years was greater than € 170 million!) unlike OL which has a strong financial structure and guarantees participation in European Cup qualification and sustainability for all its supporters », he said. OM will appreciate.
