Present in the M6 program “who wants to be my partner” this Wednesday, February 12, what becomes of the former president of OL?
Jean-Michel Aulas has not been president of OL for several years now, but his activities have not stopped. With his son Alexandre, they have (re) become the majority shareholders of the largest omnisport room and Lyonnaise shows, the LDLC Arena.
This room was first sold to John Textor, the current owner of the football club, in the Ol Group package, in December 2022. But the complex was finally bought for € 164 million by Holarena (including Holnest, the Family Office by Jean-Michel Aulas and his son Alexandre, is a 60 % shareholder) for around 40 % of the capital. “”We decided to go to the offensive with Alexandre at Christmas 2023, then we officially concluded in June 2024,, explained Jean-Michel Aulas in an article for the team. This room had to come back to the family. I imagined it in the OL valley program in 2010! I have fun through fifteen different trades. We go from Justin Timberlake to MMA, humorists like Redouane Bougheraba to huge American shows with wrestling where we had more than 350 million people connected with The Backlash. We made their biggest recipe outside the United States! EXly pride the businessman.
In addition to his complex, Jean-Michel Aulas has functions still important at the Vice-Presidency of the FFF and chairs the new Women’s Professional Football League (LFFP). Its link with the world of football is therefore still quite important. But it is as entrepreneur that he participates in the M6 program and for good reason, three presentations directly concern Lyonnais …
What is his fortune?
According to the latest ranking of Challenges magazine published last July, Jean-Michel Aulas would have a personal fortune estimated at 450 million euros in 2024.
