Rémy Riou Reveals John Textor’s Blunt Assessment to OL Players: “You’re Useless!”

In an interview with “So Foot,” Rémy Riou, currently the Paris FC goalkeeper and a former Olympique Lyonnais player, shared a memorable incident involving John Textor. Textor, who became the club’s majority shareholder in 2022 and served as president from May 2023 to June 2025, reportedly lost his temper during a locker room confrontation. This outburst occurred around the time of Peter Bosz’s dismissal as coach, with Textor directly and vehemently telling the players: “Get your act together because you’re useless.”
