"This was the first General Meeting under my leadership, which is an important milestone in the life of a listed company. I appreciated being able to engage in constructive and calm discussions with minority shareholders, some of whom have been part of the Olympique Lyonnais adventure for many years.

Since I joined you in rebuilding OL, the interests of our Club and its community have come first. Our unity is our strength, and we speak with one voice to protect and promote Olympique Lyonnais.

Our goal has been to restore stability in the governance and management of the institution and to provide the best possible conditions for our team to perform on the pitch.

Today's General Meeting marks a new positive step in this direction."
