Lyon set to avoid sanctions from the DNCG | OneFootball

According to a report from Sacha Tavolieri, Olympique Lyonnais are set to avoid sanctions when they meet with the Direction Nationale du Contrôle de Gestion (DNCG) this year. The Rhone club have been under strict monitoring after financial difficulty. 

OL were previously relegated to Ligue 2 by the French football financial watchdog, but this decision was reversed on appeal. A stricter policy on the way the club has been run under the presidency of Michelle Kang has seen the club’s financial picture improve. 

Lyon to be handed DNCG reprieve

With capital injected into the football club, and costs reduced, Lyon look like they will be able to breathe easier when they meet with the DNCG. This is a stark contrast to previous meetings with the body where the club’s future in Ligue 1 has been at stake.
