The news hit like a thunderbolt: the French Football Association’s financial control chamber (DNCG) has relegated Olympique Lyon to the second division. The question is, however, whether this decision will stand.
One thing is certain at OL: they are fighters. On Tuesday evening, the sixth-placed team in the Ligue 1 season announced: “Olympique Lyonnais takes note of the incomprehensible decision made by the DNCG this evening and confirms that it will immediately lodge an appeal.” This case is far from over.
