The sketch couldn't go on any longer.

While the lawn of the Pierre Mauroy stadium was in the process of being transformed into a field of potatoes, the company Elisa, manager of the Losc enclosure, has decided to change it next week as revealed by

La Voix du Nord

.

It must be said that the company was under pressure from all sides.

The northern club through the voice of its leaders and players did not stop criticizing the dismal state of the northern turf deemed to be the worst in Ligue 1.

Work will start on Sunday

Since the start of the week, Losc supporters have even launched a petition for a quick change in order to play the round of 16 of the Champions League against Chelsea on a lawn worthy of the name.

Finally, Damien Castelain, president of the European metropolis of Lille (MEL), owner of the stadium, has also been publicly moved in recent days from the stadium field to the point of calling for an immediate change.

The pressure will eventually pay off.

Elisa, who is financially supporting the operation, will take advantage of the winter break to change the terrain.

From Sunday, the day after the Lille-Auxerre match in the Coupe de France, the construction machinery will land on the Villeneuvoise lawn.

Objective: to have a new usable lawn from January 2 or 3, date of a potential 16th finals of the Coupe de France du Losc at the Pierre Mauroy stadium.
