Dimitri Payet is in Marseille this Thursday. The old icon of the Orange Vélodrome was seen at the Marseille club training center, where he arrived by car at the end of the morning, as revealed by the well -known supporter and user, Thierry Mode, famous for welcoming new recruits to their landing in Marignane.

It is not a priori for a return as a player that Payet is back on the lands of his most recent exploits in France, but for a simple courtesy visit. No sports comeback is on the agenda, unless surprised, although OM prospects to find a last offensive reinforcement.

Stuck in a serious case in Brazil

Dimitri Payet left Olympique de Marseille two years ago, after a press conference with Pablo Longoria. Tears had flowed afloat, with the promise to rework together once the career of the French international is over. Since then, the Reunionese has experienced ups and downs …

Starting in Brazil to evolve under the colors of Vasco de Gama, Payet was first the darling of fans, before a judicial case comes to precipitate the end of his adventure in South America.

Last April, a woman accused the ex-Nantais and Stéphanois of psychological and sexual violence as part of an extra-marital relationship. Dimitri Payet had defended himself by evoking reports made, although based on sadomasochistic and scatophile practices. He has not been exonerated since and the case is following his court in Brazil, where an indictment and a trial are looming.

Olympique de Marseille may have already recruited players with a passive judicial plan in a recent past, Dimitri Payet's situation seems too thorny for Pablo Longoria and Medhi Benatia to envisage a boost.
