While the CGA CGM has firmly denied the idea of wanting to buy Olympique de Marseille, rumors are still circulating around the Saudis’ interest in Frank McCourt’s club. But, if this is done, there will be no preliminaries.
By announcing in La Provence, a newspaper which belongs to the CMA CGM group, that the takeover of OM was impossible, Tanya Saadé Zeenny, deputy general manager of the company and sister of the boss, brutally closed the door in the face of those who saw the new jersey sponsor of the Marseille club will then replace Frank McCourt at the helm of OM. Exit therefore the huge Marseilles company, and return of the Saudi investors. But, after the blow of heat caused by the recent declarations of Rolland Courbis, Mohamed Henni or even Bengous, the bellows fell a little. This does not surprise Thibaud Vézirian who thinks that everything is in the pipes, but that things will be secret until the last.
TV still believes that the sale of OM is progressing

For the man who launched this rumor of a sale of OM two and a half years ago, it is understandable that some people get angry, but that the operation is progressing at its own pace and far from the spotlight. ” Impatience, I understand it, problems, I understand it, whether it’s ultra-long and ultra-boring, I totally agree. I don’t make money on the sale of OM. Let everyone talk about it openly in June, I answer, but I haven’t said anything about it. I have no trouble saying that all the ultra-reliable sources, the documents that are there have not given any official confirmation today. I have no source that told me it was screwed up and that McCourt had a plan for X years and investing, but it didn’t. I’m not asking anyone to believe me. But, since 2021, the club has been bouncing back stronger and stronger, and there is no explanation. I’m not master of the clock, but for me it’s inevitable, it’s looming, see you at the next episode, but it’s not me who will do them. I have nothing new to give, no dreams to sell. I just know it’s inevitable and it’s going to be a big thing. But, I don’t know everything. The people who are around this file like surprises “, said Thibaud Vézirian on his channel Youtube.
