While waiting to evolve with the most expensive recruit in the history of the club, the Brazilian winger Igor Paixao, the OM competes with a fifth preparation meeting this Saturday by finding its Vélodrome stadium for the reception of Seville (kick -off 8 p.m.). The recruitment produced by Pablo Longoria and Medhi Benatia (CJ Egan-Riley and Facundo Medina in Defense, Angel Gomes in the middle and Aubameyang Pierre-Emerick in attack, while waiting for others …) ignites the Phocoaean supporters like every summer …
The friendly meetings of the Phocaeans have made a box in recent weeks. OM faced a Dutch D3, for a victory against Excelsior Maassluis (0-5), and a promoted in Belgian D2, Royal Olympic Club of Charleroi (1-1), and the broadcasts on YouTube were a success. The training of Roberto de Zerbi chained with an internship in Spain and two shocks against Liga teams, Valence (1-1), a week ago in Andorra, and Girona (2-0), Tuesday evening in Tarragona.
The vice-champions of France (which will therefore compete in the first phase of the Champions League for eight days) continue in their lair with a shock against a third Liga team. The Sevillans are led by the French international Loïc Badé, the Bleuet Lucien Agoumé, the lateral Gabriel Suazo recruited in Toulouse or the former Montpellier Akor Adams, author of a double during the last match of his team (victory 4-2 against Schalke).
OM passes by paying
The meeting will not be broadcast this time on TV or for free on Youtube. This OM-Séville is indeed to find on the official website for the members “People Bleu & Blanc”, a loyalty program which requires membership at 25 euros, and on the Twitch of OM, accessible against 5.99 dollars per month. A small disappointment for team followers who do not have access to these two platforms.
OM will conclude its preseason with a second match at the Vél 'with the arrival of Aston Villa, the Premier League team led by Unai Emery and led by Boubacar Kamara. The meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Saturday, will be followed once again on OM.NET and Twitch, but may be purchased by Canal+ for TV broadcasting. The Olympians will launch the Ligue 1 season on Friday August 15 on Stade Rennais, on the future Ligue 1+ channel.
