Lille coach (L1) Christophe Galtier assured Friday at a press conference that he had not exchanged with Jean-Michel Aulas, the president of Lyon, who would like to attract him to his club this summer.
“I want to confirm that there has been no contact with Mr. Aulas or Mr. Juninho.
I did not speak with Mr. Aulas, I did not speak with Mr. Juninho.
They did not speak with me or with my environment, ”said Galtier, who is under contract with Losc until June 2022.
"My relations with Mr. Aulas are very friendly but it is badly to know Mr. Aulas and to know me badly to make people believe that one can exchange in this period on the future of the ones and the others", added the northerner technician, while rumors show his arrival at OL this summer, replacing Rudi Garcia, who is at the end of his contract.
"Obviously I will give priority to Losc"
Galtier also indicated that discussions would take place soon with Olivier Létang, president of the Dogues since December and the takeover of the club by the Luxembourg investment fund Merlyn Partners: "Obviously I will give priority to Losc", specified the Lille coach.
On the eve of a major trip to the lawn of Paris SG, leader of L1 with the same number of points as Losc, Galtier felt that the meeting would not be decisive: "Whoever wins will not yet be champion. and whoever loses will still be in the race.
Behind it will remain 7 games.
Playing against Paris takes a lot of character, investment and determination, so I hope we have those ingredients.
