After rallying probable Stade Rennais, Guingamp is now all alone in the UCPF, the union of professional clubs deserted by the other 18 league formations 1. secession + initiated at the beginning of July by Jean-Michel Aulas for which this new challenge in the face of the French federation (FFF) is needed to reform a French football, which he considers obsolete governance in the current economic environment.
“ This is an initiative that will help to renovate the football and put it in comparison with other European professionals footballs; that’s a break in the sense of the past and this is a initiative for the future . ” Invited to midday of the Journal of 13 hours on France-Inter, Jean-Michel Aulas is on all fronts. Hours after the presentation of Mathieu Valbuena, rookie Lyon last date, the President of the OL did the media tour to explain the reasons for the dramatic secession, which he instigated and led eighteen Ligue 1 clubs, joined a priori in the evening by the Stade Rennais, leaving the UCPF, the union of professional clubs, to create another structure.
A movement that occurs on a background of open conflict between the National League (LFP) and the French Football Federation (FFF) after the latter has chosen to reverse and quash the decision to establish the principle of two runs and two mounted in Ligue 1, instead of current three. A retreat experienced as a provocation by JMA and the vast majority of the elite clubs: “ We decided to leave the UCPF to create a new union, which wants more independent vis-à-vis the French Football Federation said the Lyon president in an interview with the daily Le Monde . The decision to cancel the FFF passage, endorsed by the Board of Directors the Professional Football League, three to two runs in Ligue 2 as of this season, similar to the abuse of power. In fact, during the two votes held on this issue, the vast majority of voters CA (13 votes against 14 and 2 against 1) was in favor of reform . ” For Aulas, “ The Federation considers that this goes against the general interest of French football. It considers that a minority of club presidents will take power and impose its decisions .”
According to him, it would not. “ We wanted to regulate the economic aspect with this reform is to say, create less uncertainty on the descents and therefore economic losses. There is a significant financial gap between Ligue 1 and Ligue 2, so it takes longer protect investors League clubs 1 . “
The goal is not to crush the other. We want of course to keep the solidarity principle, at least economically, with the clubs in Ligue 2

Of the Inter waves, is entrepreneur qu’Aulas spoke. “ It’s a matter of agility and fitness and perspective structures that no longer correspond to what it takes to evolve One evolves in an economic environment where the UEFA, with financial fair play, has set up a framework in which all clubs can compete in terms of increasingly balanced with fairness. We can not be static on what was done, it must fetch resources outside, in European competitions, redistribute optimized way, do not deprive yourself of course the Ligue 2 clubs but also to ensure that Ligue 1 clubs of mid-table, finds more resources. And allow especially those which make the value of French football to fetch these resources on Europe, where activity is growing strongly, except in France. For this, we need high-performance clubs . “
In this perspective, which should allow slingers specify their plans early September,” the idea is to create a structure more independent of the FFF that is not the UCPF today and try to generate more financial resources. The goal is not to crush the other. We want of course to keep the solidarity principle, at least economically, with the clubs in Ligue 2 . “
And the timing should obviously nothing to chance with such a strategist:” You should know that tomorrow (Thursday) , will go into the decision referred to the State Council, so this is good timing. We will show the State Council that the argument of the Federation, which considers that the decision goes against the general interest of French football, is baseless and totally contrary to the genuine mult é. “
Jean-Michel Aulas, after years in which OL had to eat his black bread, feels grow wings as he prepares to build a new club brand new enclosure, like several other elite clubs, who participate modernization also driven by the upcoming Euro 2016, organized in France. “ We are at the dawn of a wonderful season which will conclude with the Euro held on our territory. This is the perfect time to reform the French football . “
