Summer will have been particularly a movement at Olympique de Marseille. And not only among the boys, who saw Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe pushed towards the exit after their violent fight in the Olympian locker room after the defeat conceded at the opening on the lawn of Stade Rennais. It was the same with girls.
While the sky and white were preparing to return to the elite after five years of absence, the preparation was marked by a fight in a friendly match against the Barcelona club of the ESPORTIU Europa club, on August 20 in Girona. The situation has so much degenerate that the meeting had to be a time stopped.
And this fight will have been fraught with consequences for OM. The coach of the Marseille team, Frédéric Gonçalves, who had refused to get out of the field after being excluded in the first period for having annoyed himself against arbitral decisions, was indeed laid down as a precaution and his dismissal would be already acted, according to Provence.
Maria Thorisdottir, Opal Curless wants to leave OM
But OM also lost its two main recruits of the summer because of this fight. Maria Thorisdottir, just arrived in Marseille, was so shocked that she decided to terminate her contract to return to Norway.
And according to the regional daily, the American Opal Curless also decided to leave Marseille only a few weeks after arriving. She would not have adapted to Marseille life and the episode of the fight would clearly not be for nothing.
While the Marseillaises bowed to the opening on the lawn of Olympique Lyonnais, the Marseille leaders now have ten days to strengthen their workforce, especially in defense.
