Jean-Michel Roussier, president of Le Havre AC, held a press conference on Thursday morning at the Stade Océane to update on the club's situation. The president started his speech by paying tribute to Bryan Bergougnoux, assistant coach who passed away on May 29. « A word about Bryan. This season is ruined by his disappearance, he was a great guy, loved by the whole club. He had managed to create human relationships around him. He deserves to be remembered, his four children and his ex-wife too. Beyond all that we will announce, that's the most important », said Roussier. The director, who was in Paris on Wednesday for the club's passage in front of the DNCG, accompanied by a representative of Blue Crow, the shareholder, the general manager of the HAC and the administrative and financial director of the club, has convinced the financial watchdog of the football. « Our shareholders have made huge efforts, they have shown their willingness to help the development of Le Havre, to participate in the sporting development of the club, of the first team and the academy, continued the former OM president. The accounts are clean, both for this season and the next one. But we will not dream, we can make expensive signings but we will stay on our economic logic. Even if we do not have a salary cap, we will regulate it ourselves. That gives us a bit more oxygen. » The same as the signing of a 5-year contract with CMA CGM, which becomes the premium partner of Le Havre AC and could also become the title sponsor of the Stade Océane, if the Community Council decides so during a vote scheduled for June 18. The mayor of the city, Edouard Philippe, is favorable, which should facilitate the decision. The press conference was also the occasion to officially extend the contract of Didier Digard. The technician, in the last contract on June 30, has extended for one season, plus an additional one in case of maintenance in Ligue 1. « That Didier remains the coach was essential and shared by the shareholder », said Roussier. On the other hand, the director did not want to confirm the arrival of Demba Ba as director of football in replacement of Mathieu Bodmer, leaving for Caen. « Demba Ba? I speak with him and with others. I will not confirm because today there is nothing to confirm », concluded Roussier. The arrival of the former Chelsea striker is still in good shape and he must come with three people.
