Olympique de Marseille is preparing for a particularly eventful summer. Consequence of a nightmarish end to the season which saw OM, for a long time on the podium in Ligue 1, lose their footing and have to give up on the Champions League.
Having moved up to sixth place following their victory at Le Havre on Sunday, the Ciel et Blanc will at best have to be content with the Europa League if they win next weekend against Rennes. The crisis experienced by OM has claimed several victims, first and foremost Pablo Longoria, Medhi Benatia and Roberto De Zerbi. Habib Beye, called to the rescue following the departure of the Italian technician, should follow in the coming weeks and the summer transfer window promises to be very hectic.
Many players are expected to leave the club and this particularly applies to Mason Greenwood, whose attitude has been the source of much tension, both among managers and supporters. A return across the Channel has also been mentioned in England, where Tottenham would be particularly interested.
“I hope I can stay”
But according to him, the former Mancunian would not want to leave. “ I hope I can stay », He said at the end of the UNFP Trophies ceremony in comments relayed by Dounia Mesli, after having said all the good things he thought of Ligue 1.
“Ligue 1 is a wonderful championship. We are playing incredible matches and, for me, it is one of the best championships I have played in,” he indicated, adding regarding his presence in the championship team:
“There are some incredible players in this type team, so it’s nice to receive this trophy. »
Mason Greenwood also spoke about the complicated season experienced by OM, which in his eyes cannot overshadow its good performances. “This season has sometimes been difficult collectively, especially in recent months, but individually I think I have had a good season,” he actually blurted out.
