Renowned for his field of expertise, Pablo Longoria knew he was eagerly awaited last summer. The president of Olympique de Marseille should turn things around after a majorly failed season. For Jérôme Rothen, the Spaniard succeeded in his bet.
“Will De Zerbi settle in for the long term? I hope there is stability in this club, Finally. I’ve had the show for over three years now, I spoke a lot with Pablo Longoria, explained the consultant on RMC. I had the impression that he was right and that he was backpedaling every time. And this instability was chronic. There, you have the feeling that there is a real turning point, already because he surrounded himself with men in the field, and Medhi (editor’s note Benatia) is one of them. »
Benatia, the perfect leader for OM
Another good point noted by Rothen: the choice to rely on Mehdi Benatia. “I am happy to see that a big club like Olympique de Marseille is integrating veterans into the management who can contribute. It is sorely lacking in French clubs, so it’s good that Medhi is here.”
“And then a passionate person like Roberto De Zerbi with all his staff, It can only do good for Olympique de Marseille. Before the match against Auxerre, I find that in terms of communication and everything he was able to bring out, it was a 100% success”concluded the former Parisian. A more than positive result for Pablo Longoria.
