“I’ve been campaigning for this Ligue 3 for 10 years”

Laval will not have been able to find the fault. Opposed to Villefranche last night, on the occasion of the 13th day of National, the Mayenne club was effectively neutralized by the Caladois (0-0). A point despite everything satisfactory for the Laval coach Olivier Frapolli, as entrusted to Ouest-France after the meeting: “It’s a good point because we remained on two defeats, obviously I would have liked to win but we are not going to pass shade in the light in 90 minutes. Even if Villefranche has not yet won at home, we know that all the series have an end and we did not want to be the victim tonight “.

Make professional football in France “more coherent”

Now eighth with his team, the Mayenne technician has also been invited to speak on a return from Ligue 1 to 18 clubs. An option that would seem to satisfy Olivier Frapolli, with a particular interest: that of creating a Ligue 3 instead of the National. He explains himself, always with West France.

“I’ve been campaigning for this Ligue 3 for 10 years, he recalls. By reducing Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 to 18 clubs, we could create a third professional division. In all the regulations we are on horseback, we is considered pro but we are managed by the Federation under amateur status. We now know that the National is a reservoir of talent, that many players are revealed in this championship. I had Nicolas Pépé on loan in Orléans, eg I think it would make professional football in France much more coherent, rather than having a fully hybrid third division
