RMC: Lead the team to qualify for the Europa League, Lille coach Genesio will stay

May 20th According to "RMC", despite previous rumors of leaving the team, Genesio will continue to coach Lille, and his contract with the club expires in 2026.

Lille ended the 2024-25 season as Ligue 1 No. 5, which gave them the qualification to participate in the Europa League next season. On Monday, Lille chairman Olivier Létang said: "As I said, Genecio will still coach Lille next season, and I am very happy about that. In my opinion, there is no better coach to help us continue to develop the program and succeed." After the final round of Ligue 1, Genecio's remarks have caused some questions about his continued coaching team, especially when there are rumors that he has a disagreement with the club chairman. At that time, Genecio said: "Indeed, we don't always agree on certain issues, and the contract is for fulfillment. Of course, we also need to summarize and answer some questions. Indeed, we often communicate, and we don't always agree on certain decisions, but this is the norm in all football clubs."

Lille will face a blood loss in the lineup this summer, and Jonathan David, Angel Gomez and others will leave the team.
