John Textor, President and CEO of Eagle Football Holdings, has expressed his satisfaction with the recent decision of the French Football Federation (FFF), which confirms the participation of Olympique Lyonnais in both Ligue 1 and the UEFA Europa League. This determination reverses a previous decision by the DNCG, which had called the club’s financial status into question.
In an official statement, Textor emphasized the economic strength of Olympique Lyonnais and the effort made by his team. “I want to congratulate the entire Olympique Lyonnais team for clearly demonstrating what we have known for a long time: our great club in Lyon is financially strong and ready to continue its rise in the standings both in France and Europe,” he stated.
Furthermore, the executive acknowledged the leadership of Michele Kang, the club’s current President, and the importance of the support provided by shareholders and the management team during challenging times. “I am very happy for you that the dark clouds have dissipated and the light is shining brightly in Lyon again,” he remarked, referring to the suffering of the team’s supporters in recent days.
Eagle Football, the entity backing Olympique Lyonnais, also has a presence in other iconic clubs around the world, such as Botafogo, Crystal Palace, and RWDM Brussels. With its vision, the company aims to not only strengthen its impact on sports but also create value for all its stakeholders, from players to local communities.
