Pablo Longoria, the strong man of OM, had a very difficult last few hours. Heckled by the Olympian supporters, he was forced to withdraw and give up the trip to Amsterdam. The possibility that we will not see him again in Marseille cannot be ruled out.
Aubameyang only thinks about the match
A delicate situation but which seems to leave Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, the star of the team, rather indifferent. When he was asked at a press conference to convey a message to his president, the Gabonese kicked in. “What we have to say between us must stay between us. Everything that is said between us and the leaders must remain confidential, it concerns us”he confided.
The former Stéphanois therefore refused to share his feelings towards Longoria. He then clarified that he and his teammates were only thinking about the pitch and this upcoming match against Ajax: “It’s quite a storm. We think about the match, it’s the most important thing, we have to focus on that. Results are expected of us on the ground. It’s a rather special context but the priority is to concentrate on tomorrow’s match. It’s not easy, we’re human and we think about that too. »

Finally, Aubame concluded by affirming that he firmly believed in a Marseille rebound on Dutch soil. “When we play at OM, we have to give everything to achieve results. We have the capacity, we have a really talented group. We have a lot of important matches coming up and it’s a real test for us, to show that we have the ability to surpass ourselves. »
