The team revealed that the former CEO of Manchester United, Ed Woodward, should join Eagle Football Group, the owners of Ligue 1 Olympique Lyonnais.
Eagle Football Group is expected to stock up in the United States and in advance, the company, the owners of Lyon, seeks to strengthen behind the scenes. Consequently, John Textor should recruit Woodward, who left Manchester United in 2022. Before his departure, he spent 17 years at the Premier League and before becoming CEO, had occupied the role of vice-president of the club.
Woodward would be brought to the Eagle Administrative Council, which, as well as the possession of Lyon, also has a minority participation in the Premier League Crystal Palace, a minority participation that Textor had tried to sell. He would manage the relationship between Eagle and Wall Street, with the old ready to become public, perhaps in the fortnight.
