Former columnist for the L’Equipe channel, Thibaud Vézirian does not escape criticism concerning his number 1 subject, the sale of Olympique de Marseille. The sports daily attacks the journalist frontally on this subject.
A little over two years ago, Thibaud Vézirian blew up social networks by stating without hesitation that Saudi interests had just bought Olympique de Marseille. In the process, a journalist from Infosport + confirmed the info before the subject immediately disappeared from the sports channel of the Canal + group. Since then, Frank McCourt is still the owner of OM. However, this does not prevent the former columnist for the L’Equipe channel and various media, who now intervenes Sud Sud-Radio, from confirming that something is going on in the corridors of the Vélodrome. This Monday, in a long article devoted to influencers, the sports daily paints a portrait against Thibaud Vézirian and at the same time destroys all the rumors about the imminent or even already recorded sale of OM.

“ The OM subject is a carrier on the networks. And Thibaud Vézirian knew how to play it to make a little notoriety, which is struggling today. This former journalist-host remains linked to the hashtag #VenteOM (…) Having since become the laughing stock of some of the supporters, he was taken very seriously by the Olympian management at the time. But not for his “info”. Faced with the extent taken by the hashtag, he had received a letter from the management of the club (…) The streamer always insists that OM will be sold. It’s a bit of his business (…) Fewer people believe in it: his lives no longer attract as much writes Théo Troudé, journalist for the sports daily. For his part, Thibaud Vézirian replied that he was writing a book on this subject, noting that ” the economic development of OM over the past two years is very surprising. At a time when the L’Equipe channel is going to launch a program at the start of the school year with columnists from social networks, the tone is set.
