In July 2024, Fabrizio Ravanelli made his comeback to Olympique de Marseille. Almost a quarter of a century after his departure, the former striker was appointed institutional and sporting advisor to the Marseille club.
According to Provence this Tuesday, the Italian’s contract should soon be terminated. President Pablo Longoria would have quickly tired of him, while Football Advisor Medhi Benatia did not really have any consideration for a man he did not choose.
“He doesn’t understand, he’s disgusted that it ended like this. How can a man of his class, who has won the club and the hearts of the supporters, be thrown away like this? »asked a relative of the “silver fox”, quoted by the regional daily.
Ravanelli, divorce with OM to come
If Fabrizio Ravanelli’s name still appears in the club’s organizational chart, it should not last much longer. His place at the Orange Vélodrome, which he retains for the moment, has already been changed.
It has already been several weeks since
the Olympian management dismissed him. Last February, he stood out by denouncing a
“scandalous arbitration” following the defeat against Auxerre at Abbé-Deschamps (3-0). He was then reframed by his superiors.
