It’s now a financial survival race for Olympique Lyonnais. Relegated to Ligue 2 by the DNCG, the club must convince the appeals commission on July 10 to avoid dropping out of France’s top flight. And the condition is crystal clear: raise €200 million—fast.
According to L’Équipe, Lyon must inject over €100 million immediately into its accounts, and provide solid guarantees for another €100 million to cover the season. No vague promises—only firm, irrevocable financial backing will be accepted.
Newly appointed president Michele Kang, along with Michael Gerlinger, is now leading this high-stakes battle. They have just days left to prevent one of France’s biggest clubs from collapsing into the second tier.
