June 23 (Reuters) - Sports businesswoman Michele Kang, who has been the chair and CEO of Eagle Football Group, has offered to pay $30 million for an 88% stake in a deal which also includes €71 million ($81 million) in financing aimed at restructuring the debt of the owner of French soccer club Olympique Lyonnais.

* Kang offered to buy the stake in EFG for a fraction of its market value as the group struggles with servicing of debts, which stood at €616.3 million as of December 31.

* Olympique Lyonnais was sanctioned with relegation to Ligue 2 in June 2025 over its financial problems, but this was overturned by the appeals committee of French soccer's financial watchdog

* EFG's board of directors said it will express its reasoned opinion on the proposed tender offer in due course

* The company would be renamed "Olympique Lyonnais Groupe S.A." at the next shareholders meeting, EFG added.

* Kang already owns women's team OL Lyonnes
