OM records the arrival of a new technician. Olivier Bijotat joined the training center, after a long career in the North.

In the Bijotat family, OM chose Olivier. Dominique's brother, notably Olympic champion with the French team in 1984, will take care of Marseille hopes.

At 60, Olivier Bijotat joined the OM training center directed since last December by Lasaad “Titou” Hasni, after working in the North.

Bijotat was stationed at RC Lens as a trainer (2000-2012) then as a pre-training manager. He also went through Valenciennes.

Angel Gomes, first recruit

On the side of the team transfer window trained by Roberto de Zerbi, OM reached this week an agreement in principle with Angel Gomes. The English international environment (4 selections) arrives free from Lille.

In 2024-2025, the 24-year-old had played 14 LOSC jersey 1 games, and participated in four Champions League games.
