🇫🇷 Former Ajaccio president killed at his mother’s funeral | OneFootball

The world of sports in France has been shaken by the shooting death of Alain Orsoni, who was president of AC Ajaccio during its time in Ligue 1 just three seasons ago. The attack occurred shockingly during the funeral of his own mother, a scenario that has shocked public opinion.

A Profile Beyond Football

Although Orsoni was a key figure in managing the Corsican club, his career was deeply marked by his activities outside the stadiums. He was a prominent leader of Corsican nationalism and was involved in the violent internal conflicts that fractured the movement in the 2000s.

An End After Several Attacks

This was not the first time Orsoni was in the crosshairs. The former leader had already survived several previous assassination attempts related to the territorial and political disputes of the island. Local authorities are now investigating the motives for this crime, which seems to be linked to his complex political past rather than his role in professional football.
