The news of OM revolves at least as much on the transfer window and the new coach, as a possible sale of the club in the event of an XXL proposal made to Frank McCourt. Rightly according to a connoisseur of the file.

You don’t even have to wait for the summer transfer window or the end of the season, the sea serpent of the Olympique de Marseille sale is eternal on the old port. It must be said that, despite the investments which are far from being ridiculous on the part of Frank McCourt, the Provençal club is not strong enough to fight financially against the power of PSG. And that still annoys the supporters, who believe that from the start of the season, the dice are loaded in the title race. The hope of seeing the club be bought by Saudi Arabia, like PSG with Qatar, is often heard in the bays of the Vélodrome, to allow international stars to join OM. Pablo Longoria is currently doing his best, and he even manages to make some big purchases and recruit stars like Alexis Sanchez, but the idea of ​​aiming even higher to dream of a European title like 30 years ago is a real obsession in Marseilles.

In recent weeks, the blowback from Saudi Arabia has been even more present. Investors would even have arrived in Marseille to discuss such a possibility, without concretizing it with an offer. Information confirmed by Thibaut Vézirian, who has been working on this file for three years, and has repeatedly announced that the sale will take place imminently. Despite the dead calm regarding formalizations, or even offers, the journalist persists and signs and assures that the noises of recent days are not fabrications. Without promising that everything will be concluded in the next few days, or the next few weeks, TV has once again sent a very optimistic message to OM supporters on a favorable outcome, and very exciting with regard to the future financial means of their club. favorite.

Saudi Arabia and OM, it will happen

Each has its sources, each its certainties, each its proofs. For me, working on the subject every day for 3 years, in fact, on this file, I think that’s called trying to simplify the final story. How to tell such a complex economic dossier to football fans who do not want to stuff themselves with lengthy explanations? By explaining to them that negotiations are taking place at the moment and that everything is decided in 3 weeks. It’s easier to swallow, it’s more effective. But that’s taking the fans for fools. The people of Marseille will be very happy given the size of the project, and the whole of Ligue 1 will also benefit from it. “, assured Thibaut Vézirian, for whom, despite the length and complexity, there is no doubt that it will end up being done. However, time is passing, and the first announcement of the OM sale for Saudi Arabia still dates from February 2021…
