Lille striker Mohamed Bayo, dismissed on Sunday August 21, before the match against Paris Saint-Germain for disciplinary reasons, was fined and made available to the reserve team until further notice, indicated Monday, August 22 to AFP a source close to the club. Sunday, PSG took place against Losc (7-1).

The 24-year-old Guinean international, recruited this summer by Losc for more than 12 million euros from Clermont, had been photographed on the night of Saturday to Sunday in a night establishment in Lille and the photo had been published on social networks. “It’s a lack of respect for the club, a lack of respect for the technical staff and also for our supporters”, had struck Sunday the northern president Olivier Létang at the microphone of Amazon Prime Video. “We were with the coach (Paulo Fonseca) very annoyed, even furious at this behavior which for us is not tolerable.”

In October 2021, Bayo was arrested shortly after a collision between his car and another vehicle. The player, who was “alcoholic”, had “committed a hit and run” but witnesses having recognized him, he was arrested and placed in police custody quickly after the facts, explained the prosecution.

The attacker was sentenced last April to a two-month suspended prison sentence for “drunk driving” and “unintentional injuries” by the Clermont-Ferrand court. Bayo, who had started the first two Ligue 1 matches for the Dogues, should therefore not make the trip to Ajaccio on Friday August 26, at the start of the 4th day of L1 (9:00 p.m.).
