Jean-Michel Aulas maintains Peter Bosz as OL coach, at least until the end of February

The president of Olympique Lyonnais Jean-Michel Aulas confirmed in an interview with the newspaper The team appeared Friday, December 24 that Peter Bosz, whose team points to a disappointing 13th place in Ligue 1, was maintained in his coaching position, while acknowledging that he would make a new point at the end of February.

“There’s no way Peter won’t be around until the end of February. I leave us the two months of January and February to return to the championship and perhaps the Coupe de France, if we are lucky enough to be able to continue it.“Aulas told The team.“Peter is a very, very good coach. He continues to match the profile of the coach we want at OL“, he continued, about the Dutch technician appointed last May.

For the 72-year-old leader, “there are no coaches on the market who have the quality of Peter Bosz. So we simply risk doing more harm by giving in to the fashion to change coaches. So he’s going to stay. “I trust Peter and his staff more than any staff I would suddenly discover.“, he insisted.

After the first leg of the championship, OL are 13th with 24 points (and one game less), 22 points behind the Parisian leader and nine points from 3rd place, qualifying for the 3rd preliminary round of the Champions League. Lyon are still in contention in the Europa League and must wait for the Coupe de France for the decision of the disciplinary committee of the French Football Federation after the stoppage of their 32nd final against Paris FC after incidents in the stands.
