Lyon must raise €70 million in two weeks to stay in Ligue 1, or face relegation.
Following their administrative demotion to Ligue 2 by the DNCG, Olympique Lyonnais now knows the exact amount required to reverse the decision: a staggering €70 million must be injected urgently—on a single account, with no financial tricks allowed.
Transfers frozen
With John Textor pushed aside, Michele Kang and Michael Gerlinger are leading the rescue effort. The club is racing against time to convince stakeholders to invest, while UEFA also threatens to exclude OL from the Europa League if no solution is found before July 14.
Until then, Lyon’s transfer window is frozen. Only massive player sales or a quick cash injection can unlock the crisis.
