Laurent Blanc never achieved the desired results, having worked with the team for less than a year.
The collaboration between the French Lyon and the legendary ex-football player and coach Laurent Blanc did not last long. The specialist worked as a team mentor for just 11 months and was fired from his position the previous day. This was announced on the website of the French team.
The contract is terminated with the consent of the parties. The collaboration was considered unsuccessful. Along with Blanc, his assistants Frank Passy and Philippe Lambert will also leave the team.
🔴🔵 The Olympique Lyonnais and Laurent Blanc have decided, d’un common accord, to put an end to their collaboration as of today.

“Olympique Lyonnais would like to thank Laurent Blanc and his team for their commitment and professionalism during these 11 months at the helm of a professional team,” the club said in a statement.
Let’s remember that Laurent Blanc took charge of Lyon in October last year. In his position, he will replace Dutchman Peter Bosch. Under the leadership of the former world and European champion, the team finished seventh in the French championship, remaining without European competition.
The “weavers” started the current season unsuccessfully: one point in four matches and, as a result, the last place in League 1.
We remind you that earlier it became known that the German national football team fired their head coach.
