Bad news for OM and OL

Marseille and Lyon were cooled by Stade Rennais in the Nemanja Matic case.

While some rumors say they are interested in Nemanja Matic, OM and OL were a little cooled by Stade Rennais. Friday, at a press conference, Julien Stéphan actually affirmed that he wanted to keep the Serbian midfielder (35 years old), who arrived last summer. And this, despite the discomfort of the former AS Roma player.

“I hope we keep it for the second part of the seasondeclared the coach of the Breton club. I count on him as a coach, there are discussions with the club at the moment, and I will stick to that. » The future of the ex-Mancunian at Roazhon Park still remains very uncertain, according to West France.

The regional daily specifies that, for the moment, neither Marseille nor Lyon have actually contacted the leaders of the SRFC. The Marseille team would not have sufficient financial resources to secure the services of Nemanja Matic and, in principle, the Rouge et Noir would not intend to send him to Les Gones.
