“Noël Le Graët is coming to the end of his adventure”

The sprint is on. Second candidate to have declared himself for the presidency of the French Football Federation (FFF) after Frédéric Thiriez, Michel Moulin began his media campaign with the date of March 13 in the viewfinder, the date of the election to succeed Noël Le Graët. The current boss of the FFF has not yet indicated whether he was a candidate for his own succession, therefore sought by Michel Moulin. Guest of the Top of the Foot program on RMC Sport this Monday evening, the founder of the newspapers ParuVendu and Le 10 Sport announced his program, in which there is a strong idea: that of bringing together Karim Benzema, more selected since the October 2015, and the coach Didier Deschamps. But not only. The deputy president of Blois Foot 41 (N2) wants to put amateur football back at the center of the game.

“There is no benevolence, no recognition towards amateur football, believes Michel Moulin. And today, amateur football is in great danger because of that. There are fewer and fewer licensees. Fewer and fewer volunteers. Football is hurting. Little by little, if it continues, there will be no football at all, “adds the one who surrounded himself with Fabien Barthez or David Douillet.

“Relocate a lot of power from the federation to leagues and districts”

The 60-year-old entrepreneur also wants “to be the real boss of the federation. Football has not had one for a long time. We are witnessing various subjects which are never settled. Noël Le Graët has done good things. But today ‘ Hui, no one is in charge of the plane any more. And above all I believe that he is very poorly surrounded. He is coming to the end of his adventure. (…) There has to be a break in governance. We cannot have people leaving out of nowhere to lead a federation, with huge salaries. You have to put in the general management people from football, who know him, “insists Michel Moulin.

The Gardois finally promises to opt for a volunteer status: “We must reduce the costs of the federation. Today, there are 350 people. I think that 150 people, that will be more than enough. We must bring more than partners, to strengthen the position of educators with children. We must help the clubs to structure themselves, by providing them with resources. I want to relocate a lot of power from the federation to the leagues and districts. Because today, everything is centralized in Paris. I want to change things, “concludes Michel Moulin, now two months before the election.
