Jerome Boateng has apparently been dropped from the squad for the Ligue 1 game against OGC Nice by Lyon boss Peter Bosz.
A report in the French newspaper L’Equipe According to coach Peter Bosz, former FC Bayern star Jerome Boateng has been removed from the Olympique Lyon squad.
The measure should initially only apply to the game on Saturday against OGC Nice. Boateng was informed of the decision on Friday after training.
The reason for the ejection is that the 33-year-old is said to have repeatedly clashed with teammates. Boateng is said to have had verbal arguments with Leo Dubois and Rayan Cherki within a short time.
Jerome Boateng violent against Bruno Guimaraes?
The newspaper also reports that the 2014 world champions became violent in training against Bruno Guimaraes, who recently joined Newcastle United, and had a loud argument with coach Bosz over the tactics he had chosen after a defeat by Monaco.
“He’s very nervous and clashes with everyone,” an unnamed club insider is quoted as saying. His claim as a leading player does not match the performance shown.
Boateng moved from Munich to Lyon in the summer and has a contract until 2023. He has made 19 competitive appearances this season.
Things are going poorly for Lyon so far this season. Olympique is only eighth in Ligue 1.
