Paulo Fonseca has put an end to speculation regarding his future, confirming he will remain at the helm of Lyon next season. In an optimistic press conference, the Portuguese coach expressed his confidence in the club's project, despite some lingering financial uncertainties surrounding the French outfit.
"I will be here next season. The city, the club, the atmosphere, the people – I am very happy to be here and with how my work is progressing. I truly believe in the project, the people, and the future of the club. I am very motivated," the Portuguese coach affirmed.
While admitting he isn't "an expert" on financial matters, Paulo Fonseca revealed he has received "positive news" and is already planning for the future with sporting director Mathieu Louis-Jean. "With Mathieu, we've considered all scenarios. If we qualify directly for the Champions League, perhaps we can sign two or three more quality players," he explained.
Lyon will be without Tyler Morton, sidelined with a groin injury, and Tanner Tessmann, who recently underwent surgery, for Sunday's crucial clash against Lens. Currently sitting fourth in Ligue 1, the team needs to secure a better result than Lille, who face Auxerre, to claim third place.
