If the Phocaeans came out with their heads bowed against PSG, the Olympian management had prepared this trip well. Indeed, Franck McCourt, the American owner of OM was present this Thursday evening in Kuwait, during the Champions Trophy against the rival (2-2, 4-1). While attending this particular meeting, in view of the announced boycott, the businessman had an idea in mind: to meet Ahmed Al-Yousef Al-Sabah, president of the Kuwaiti Football Federation. The latter, based in the Middle East, had the opportunity to exchange a few words with the Bostonian before the game began. This is not the only internal discussion that was organized during this trip far from the Mediterranean, as recounted Provence.
The Spanish president of OM, Pablo Longoria, and the club’s general director, Alessandro Antonello, also met representatives of the foreign country’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Internal meetings in which several subjects were certainly discussed in detail. The organization, the meeting itself, or even a few sentences about financial resources.
