Following the elimination of Olympique Lyonnais in the quarter-finals of the Europa League against Manchester United on Thursday night, and after a tough extension, the players’ attention is already on the next commitment: the derby. Recognizing the importance of this meeting, coach Paulo Fonseca convened his team this Friday afternoon at the Groupama OL Training Center to prepare for this crucial game.

Friday’s training session will be arranged to take into account the considerable effort made during the European match. Players who have been titularized should benefit from active recovery, focusing on care and light fitness, while the rest of the team will work on tactical and physical aspects.

A new training session is scheduled Saturday afternoon, with the aim of perfecting the preparation before the trip to Saint-Étienne next Sunday. This final session will refine the final details and refine the strategy for this anticipated derby.
