Major financial restructuring for the OL Group
On June 26, 2026, Eagle Football Group (EFG) finalized a strategic transaction with Olympe Bidco SAS, led by Michele Kang, to restructure the debt of EFG and Olympique Lyonnais SASU (Groupe OL). Following approval from the DNCG (French football's financial watchdog) to keep the team in Ligue 1, Olympe Bidco acquired 87.78% of EFG's shares for $30 million.
A public tender offer will be filed for the remaining shares, in accordance with applicable law. Huit Advisory will act as an independent expert. Furthermore, a €31 million shareholder loan has been granted by Olympe Bidco to OL, with a potential of €71 million over two years. Existing debt has been rescheduled, and debts to Eagle Football have been discharged.
Michele Kang and Michael Gerlinger will retain their management positions within Groupe OL. The latter is leaving the Eagle Bidco group and plans to rename itself "Olympique Lyonnais Groupe SA" at the upcoming general meeting.
