The Romanian technician is hot-blooded. A Canal+ journalist was physically threatened by the FC Metz coach.

Friday evening, in the opening match of the 23rd day of Ligue 1, FC Metz lost (1-2) against Olympique Lyonnais. A new defeat which leaves the Garnets in a relegation position, in 17th position.

In a post-match press conference, László Bölöni was very virulent towards a Canal+ journalist. ” Listen to me! When you ask questions so stupid, so provocative… ‘When are you going to be fired?’ That’s practically what you’re asking for. And you’re laughing! “, the 70-year-old Romanian technician told him in a sequence broadcast in the show “Soir de Ligue 1” on C+ Sport 360.

Threat

” No ! I didn’t want to offend you sir. It is not the goal “, then retorted the journalist from the encrypted channel. “You deserve a slap”then said the man who was the coach of Stade Rennais between 2003 and 2006, fortunately without linking action to words. “I don’t want to offend you sir. That’s not the goal,” his interlocutor defended himself.

Arriving on the sidelines of FC Metz in June 2022, László Bölöni managed to bring the Lorraine club back into Ligue 1 at the end of last season. Since November 26, his team has not won a single match in the league and remains on a worrying series of nine defeats in ten matches.
