OL were quick to react. After the information that filtered this morning in the press about a possible termination of Marcelo’s contract, the Rhone club made things clear in a press release on Tuesday afternoon. “Olympique Lyonnais informs that following their defeat at Angers and the analysis made by the stakeholders of the Sports Directorate and their coach Peter Bosz, it was decided that their player Marcelo would take part from this day to the training sessions of the PRO 2 group, which is also made up of many other players under professional contract and managed by Gueida Fofana and Jérémie Bréchet, under the permanent supervision of Peter Bosz and his staff. “
If he does not say more about an amicable separation in the days to come, the six-time champion of France supports his decision by invoking a “Inappropriate behavior of Marcelo in the locker room after the match played in Angers”. The latter is therefore available to the N2 group and is likely to be called up against the Saint-Priest fans next Saturday for the third day (6 p.m.).
OL also express themselves in the transfer window
While a departure of the Brazilian defender in the last fortnight of August is logically to be considered and that Peter Bosz and the Lyon supporters are impatient with the arrival of new reinforcements, OL have, here too, decided to leave. wood. “Olympique Lyonnais would also like to point out that the Football Directorate is actively working on several targeted recruitment avenues, in close consultation with its coach Peter Bosz and recalls wanting to implement a relevant and coherent purchasing strategy, without giving in to media pressure, in order to seize the best opportunities in connection with the current market while having the resources allowing the club to give itself the means of its ambitions. “
