In the soap opera of the supposed sale of Olympique de Marseille, the appointment of Marcelino falls like a hair on the soup. Saudi Arabia was supposed to come with a legendary coach, but obviously it’s been postponed.
Friday evening, Olympique de Marseille formalized the signing of Marcelino as coach of the Marseille club where the Spaniard will succeed Igor Tudor. The end of the suspense for OM supporters who have been waiting for this news for a few days. When the press release from the Marseille club fell, social networks were agitated around the file of the sale announced two and a half years ago of Olympique de Marseille. Because for many supporters of this theory, if Pablo Longoria dragged on appointing the new coach, it was because something huge was preparing for the coming weeks. Obviously, the shadow of Zinedine Zidane hangs over the Velodrome. So, the formalization of Marcelino put the fire back, and allowed some to point the finger at Thibaud Vézirian.

Hours before the announcement of the Marcelino nomination, the journalist had expressed his doubts on his Twitch channel, suggesting that the passage of time confirmed that something was afoot. ” The sale of OM happens slowly. The OM coach drags, drags, it’s an incredible mess around Marcelino. We were told Thursday night, then we were told Friday night, and now we are told it will arrive early next week. Ah, ok okay… Every day, we push back. So that’s really what it takes to get the right info… “, launched Thibaud Vézirian. Enough to make those who think that there is absolutely nothing at all in this file of the sale of Olympique de Marseille sneer and that these rumors are bogus. ” The guy has been announcing a sale for almost 3 years », « How ironic!!! Reassure us it’s 2nd degree? “. At the moment Marcelino is the coach of Olympique de Marseille and Frank McCourt the one and only owner of OM, while Saudi Arabia continues to shop all over Europe.
