specific football play style from 1st team and through all the YOUTH
TEAMS, which shall consistently deliver performing results according
to Club sporting targets
Samples of Football excellence in other leagues with recognizable
playstyle are:
FC Barcelona, At. Bilbao and Villarreal in Spain

Oporto in Portugal
LOSC in France
Arsenal in England
To implant and reinforce a Football Excellence idea across the board

at LOSC it has to touch all elements of the football talent development
value chain

Unlike immense majority of Clubs (including top Clubs), LOSC will make an effort to document and make explicit its football
knowledge into LOSC playbook and share it systematically among all technical professionals and players.
LOSC playbook will be scalable to other geographies where LOSC might have an interest (e.g. China) this is unique and Victory
has the quality of staff to achieve. This was done in the US pro leagues generations ago. European football massively lags behind.

PSG, Monaco or OL

squad, 2014

10%
Opportunity to build best football academy in France and abroad. Already a great magnet brand
to attract best young talents with the promise to promote to better and higher earning clubs
Opportunity to produce players at a marginal cost compared to buying them in the open market
Higher home grown players contribution to first team as a mean to protect a proprietary LOSC
playstyle , providing cohesiveness to the dressing room and promoting more identification with the
crowd
