In a fascinating documentary broadcast by the LFP (French Professional Football League) during the closing day of the transfer window, we witness an unexpected reaction from Olivier Létang. The director of LOSC (Lille OSC) showed interest in Hugo Ekitike, but his attempts proved futile.
The LFP had cameras installed in the offices of three French club executives during the final day of the transfer window, and these sequences provide a unique glimpse into the daily life of football clubs.
During a call with the Parisian management, Olivier Létang, the leader of Lille, loses hope upon learning of Ekitike’s exorbitant salary.
“I’m coming with information, what are you going to do with Ekitike? Under what conditions are you going to do this? How much is it? Oh yeah, that much? Damn… and it’s annual, by the way. Well, I was calling for information, and at least I have confirmation that for us, it’s impossible (laughs),” Létang explained.
Rumors suggest a monthly salary of 600,000 euros. PSG unsuccessfully attempted to part ways with the player during the last transfer window.
