UEFA Launches Investigation into Olivier Létang!

“I have already written to Mr. Ceferin (President of UEFA). What happened tonight is incredible. Where is the delegate?” These were the words expressed by Olivier Létang during the Europa League clash between LOSC and PAOK (3-4) last Thursday, at halftime. The Lille president had gone down the stadium corridors to confront the referee trio following a denied penalty for Matias Fernandez-Pardo in the first half.

According to L’Équipe, UEFA’s disciplinary committee has initiated proceedings against the northern club’s leader. He faces accusations of “improper conduct” and could receive a penalty from the governing body of European football. It is worth noting that he recently received a firm one-match suspension and two suspended matches in Ligue 1, affecting his access to the bench, referee’s locker room, and official functions.
