Torcedores do clube francês Lyon protestaram contra a gestão de John Textor com faixas na entrada do centro de treinamento do time nesta quinta-feira, e chegaram a citar o Botafogo e o time belga Molenbeek — ambos que também fazem parte da holding Eagle Football Group, dirigida pelo empresário americano — nas reclamações. Os torcedores penduraram faixas questionando qual clube será o “otário” que arcará com as dívidas. O Clube francês pode ser rebaixado ao final da temporada para a segunda divisão do campeonato nacional, como punição por conta de uma crise financeira ainda não resolvida.

- Possível venda em julho: Empresários de Igor Jesus, do Botafogo, viajam à Europa e estudam destinos
Após não atingirem as metas de venda de jogadores nesta temporada, a equipe francesa busca uma vaga na competição europeia para obter a verba da classificação para desafogar das dívidas, no entanto, com quatro jogos faltando para o término da competição, perderam o último confronto e estão a três posições da almejada classificação para a fase de grupos da Liga dos Campeões.
“Sem dinheiro no final da temporada, Molenbeek? Botafogo? Lyon? Quem será o otário?”, escreveram os integrantes da torcida.
Em outra faixa, cobraram resultados melhores pelo objetivo de se classificar na competição europeia.
“Do orgulho à vergonha, quatro partidas pelo pódio “, escreveram.
Situação financeira
Em novembro do ano passado, o Lyon sofreu um transfer ban por decisão da Direção Nacional do Controle de Gestão (DNCG). O clube membro da Eagle Football ficou proibido de contratar na janela de transferências de janeiro, e poderá até ser rebaixado ao final da temporada do Francês, se não melhorar sua atual situação financeira.
Para evitar a punição, os dirigentes do Lyon devem apresentar garantias financeiras de, pelo menos, 100 milhões de euros (R$ 646,5 milhões, na cotação atual) até o final da atual temporada 2024/2025, de acordo com o jornal L’Équipe.
Os resultados financeiros do primeiro semestre da temporada 2024/25, no entanto, mostram prejuízo líquido de 117 milhões de euros (cerca de R$ 757,3 milhões), de acordo com o relatório da holding publicado em março.
A equipe também não conseguiu realizar as vendas de jogadores estimadas na última janela. Houve uma queda de 54,4 milhões de euros (R$ 352,1 milhões) nas receitas de “atividades de negociação”, de acordo com os dados publicados.
Com isso, a classificação à Liga dos Campeões se tornou essencial para manter a equipe na primeira divisão. Somente a participação na fase inicial da liga rende 18,6 milhões de euros (R$ 120,2 milhões de reais).
O próximo confronto do Lyon será neste sábado contra o Rennes. A equipe ocupa a sexta colocação do campeonato francês, se classificando para a Uefa Conference League. No entanto, com 51 pontos, está a três do Mônaco, equipe que segura a última vaga para a competição europeia com maiores premiações, a Liga dos Campeões.

Vikings continue to value culture in draft, praise Donovan Jackson’s selflessness
<!--> The Minnesota Vikings had Donovan Jackson on their radar last year when he was considering entering the 2024 NFL Draft, before he opted to return to Ohio State for his senior season.Their interest in the 6-foot-4, 315-pound left guard was further piqued during Jackson's contribution to the Buckeyes on their way to the national championship, and not just for his ability and performance.An injury at left tackle created a need for Jackson to slide over, but head coach Ryan Day left the decision up to him. Playing an unnatural position on the fly, after all, posed a risk of devaluing his draft stock. But Jackson embraced the switch, valuing the greater good over his individual professional development with a team-first attitude that solidified Minnesota's faith in him as a first-round pick.The Vikings took Jackson with the 24th overall selection […]
