Following the defeat in Rennes, where notable mistakes by the Ruddy Buquet–Stéphanie Frappart team were highlighted, Olympique Lyonnais is considering a formal action with the French football leaders. The club will ask for an interview with the management of the arbitration and the Fédération Française de Football in order to analyse in detail the beginning of the season and assess the problems encountered. This approach seeks to obtain clarification and potentially influence future arbitration decisions.

To support his request and ensure effective representation, Olympique Lyonnais will designate its managing director, Michael Gerlinger, as spokesperson at this meeting. However, the club wants to demonstrate its commitment and determination to resolve the issues raised. In this context, Daniel Congré, the sports coordinator, will be present on the bench during the next matches, alongside Jörge Maciel and Paulo Fonseca, to serve as a direct link between management and officials.

Daniel Congré’s mission will be to communicate with the arbitrators and the governing bodies, relaying the concerns of Olympique Lyonnais and advocating for concrete solutions. This radical decision reflects the club’s willingness not to remain silent in the face of perceived mistakes and to become actively involved in the improvement of French football. The objective is to ensure fairer and fairer arbitration for all teams.
