PRESS RELEASE Lyon, Monday 2 June 2008 The Board of Directors of OL GROUPE met this morning to review the 2007/08 season for the Olympique Lyonnais mens’ team. The Board hailed the sporting results of a group that won Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France, thus completing the first double in Olympique Lyonnais’ history, and only losing in the last-16 stage of the Champions League to the eventual European champions, Manchester United. It also noted a certain number of dysfunctions at the coaching management level that hung over the professional squad on a day-to-day basis during the season. As a result the Board has defined a new direction for the club with the appointment of a general manager with an expanded role and under a longer term contract. He will have an objective to advance further in the Champions League in which the club has reached the quarter-finals on three occasions then twice in the last-16 stage. The Board has given approval to the Chairman, Jean-Michel Aulas to proceed with this reorganization of the coaching staff. Jean-Michel Aulas met Alain Perrin and Christophe Galtier at the end of the morning to inform them of this new direction. Olympique Lyonnais has also confirmed the transfer of the A international goalkeeper Hugo Lloris from OGC Nice, for a fee of €8.5 million, who has signed a five-year contract. Hugo Lloris is the third player who has signed for OL for next season after Ederson, recruited in the winter transfer window and loaned to OGC Nice until the end of the season, and the Argentine international César Delgado who also arrived this winter and will start his first full season wearing the OL shirt.

That run comprised seven wins and five draws. • Les Verts' nine-game unbeaten home run in Europe stretches back to the quarter-finals of the 1980/81 UEFA Cup, when a team featuring UEFA President Michel Platini lost 4-1 to Ipswich Town FC at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.

Olympique Lyonnais : Après que Gérard Houiller ait cédé sa place à Alain Perrin, le club rhodanien a enregistré quatre arrivées, pour huit départs. L'arrivée de Nadir Belhadj était déjà conclue lors du mercato hivernal, un accord entre l'OL et Sedan ayant été trouvé pour une somme de 3,2M€. Puis, Lyon a entrepris de piller le LOSC...

Dernière arrivée en date, celle du champion du monde italien, Fabio Grosso, arrivé de l'Inter pour 7,5M€. A signaler enfin le retour de prêt de Rémy Riou, jeune gardien de 19 ans, qui avait été prêté à Lorient. L'OL aura donc dépensé pas moins de 33,2M€.

In particular, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to my supervisor Dr. Ray Holland who has supported my research with valuable advice and assistance. I also wish to extend express thankfulness for my college Gwang Jin Na. His valuable comments were much appreciated to conduct LISREL. In addition, my special thanks go to all respondents who completed my survey. Finally, but definitely not least, I would like to give my special appreciation to my family. To my parent, thank you for their endless love and support. I thank my brother, Ja Eun for his patience and encouragement throughout this process. Especially, my lovely wife, Mee Sun and son, Bon Ho born during my project have encouraged me to complete this dissertation not to give up. I am eternally grateful to all of you. i ABSTRACT This research recommends a new approach to brand strategy for Korean professional football teams, focusing on the relationships between team brand identity as the basic element of sports team branding, team brand loyalty as the most desirable goal, and identification between fans and teams as the mediator between identity and loyalty. Nowadays, professional football teams are no longer merely sporting organisations, but organisational brands with multi-million pound revenues.

Ligue 1 Guide 2021/22
2021/2022 Ligue 1 Preview Guide INTRODUCTION After a historically close title race that saw four teams in the running Ligue 1 is back with no small amount of fanfare following a busy summer. Of those four sides, while Lille and Lyon have been relatively quiet as they try to consolidate under new managers, Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain have been eager participants in the mercato, buying well in a way that addresses the two sides’ needs. Nice and Rennes have also done some canny business in the offseason, to say nothing of Marseille’s flood of arrivals, but the discussions about pro- spective title favorites in France have to start and end with the capital side. Even as rumors swirl around the potential departure of Kylian Mbappé, it’s hard to argue that Paris Saint-Ger- main haven’t done their utmost to convince their young star to stay. At least, that is, if one judges by their transfer activity. The arrivals of Sergio Ramos, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Georginio Wijnaldum, and Achraf Hakimi have bolstered Mauricio Pochettino’s side in key areas whilst also adding another layer of dynamism. If he can keep his squad happy and balanced, this team looks as potent as any in Europe, Elsewhere, Monaco are probably best-equipped to challenge, even as they will have to contend with playing European football. The arrivals of Myron Boadu, Alexander Nübel and Ismail Jakobs look to be upgrades, and so long as Niko Kovac’s exciting, front-foot football remains in place and so do all of its key elements.
