Zapping Our Mondial TOP 10: The most profitable transfers in history
Jocelyn Gourvennec must have had a funny day yesterday, when multiple media announced that David Bettoni or Laurent Battles, were targeted by Olivier Létang, to replace him on the Lille bench.
Asked this Thursday at a press conference, concerning Zinedine Zidane’s ex-assistant at Real Madrid or the former coach of Troyes, the Dogues coach defended his record.
“We will put things at the end of the season”
“What to say? I can’t comment on that. It’s the managers you have to ask. I’m very happy to be the coach of LOSC. I’m doing my job, I’m preparing for next season. I don’t have No qualms. We’ll see at the end of the season. I was recruited to ensure continuity. I respected the roadmap. I did the whole season having a very good relationship with my president. I’m in office. I know that the coach is the first target. Everyone comments on the choices. I think we’re having a successful season in some ways and a little less successful in others. We missed our last quarter of the season. We did things that I would call interesting and important despite everything, with the Champions Trophy and the Champions League. Everyone has the right to think what they want. I think I deserves a little more respect. I don’t want to be seen as a victim either. I’m not the only coach targeted. You have to be very professional (…) angel in person or by message with my president. I have had a very good relationship with Olivier for a long time. We will ask things at the end of the season. We will take stock of the past year“explained Jocelyn Gourvennec, according to comments relayed by Little Lille.
10th in Ligue 1, Lille still have to face Nice and Rennes before ending their season.
