OL: Jean-Michel Aulas wants to take his time before deciding on Rudi Garcia's future
Will Rudi Garcia coach Olympique Lyonnais next season?
The Rhone club has not yet decided.
Asked about the subject in an interview with the
Parisian
, Jean-Michel Aulas said that a decision would be taken at the end of the year: “We want to make a decision once the championship is over with Juninho (the sports director), with Vincent Ponsot (the football director ), with the board of directors in fine.
We have a lot of satisfaction this year.
We will see where we finish, what competition we play next season.
All the possibilities exist today, confided the Lyon president.
None have been closed.
As we are still in the race to have the best possible result, it would be a mistake and a mistake on my part to say that we have already made a decision. ”
3rd in the standings, with 60 points, OL are still in the race for the title of champion of France.
Rudi Garcia took up his coaching duties in October 2019. Last season he failed to qualify his team for a European Cup but took them to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Michaël Cuisance wants to stay at OM
Loaned with an option to buy until the end of the season by Bayern Munich, Michaël Cuisance spoke about his future at a press conference on Friday.
The 21-year-old midfielder has clearly shown his desire to stay on La Canebière: “My wish is to focus on OM, not to think about Bayern yet.
There are about ten matches to go and a place in Europe to go.
My concern is OM.
I did not have any discussions on the follow-up.
I do my best to find my level, he explained to reporters.
If you take into account what I've done before, I don't deserve.
I want to prove that I can stay here.
I am with a coach who I like, who likes to attack.
My wish is to stay at OM.
I am very demanding of myself.
This period affected me a lot.
I had to deal with some situations off the pitch, I wasn't completely focused on football. ”
Despite an encouraging start with the Marseille tunic, the Frenchman has not lived up to expectations so far.
The former Borussia Mönchengladbach player has recovered since the arrival of Jorge Sampaoli by scoring in two games in a row.
Olympian leaders will have to decide by the end of the season whether to lift the option to buy the versatile midfielder, estimated at around € 18m.
