Just a few days after being dismissed as coach of Stade Rennais, Habib Beye immediately bounced back with Olympique de Marseille. Appointed on February 18 in place of Roberto De Zerbi, he was finally replaced by Franck Haise in Rennes. In Brittany, several players still have a grudge against him and intend to take advantage of the OM-Rennes match on Sunday evening to remember his good memories.
In any case, this is the testimony that Bruno Salomon gave this Friday. Present on the set of the L’Équipe channel, the journalist from radio ICI Paris Île-de-France spoke about Habib Beye. “In this match against Rennes, we are not taking one thing (in account). There is the public, there is his OM team, and there is the Rennes team opposite. And I think there are a few who want to make him bite the grass, the dust and whatever you want. »
And Bruno Salomon continues his remarks. “Don’t forget the Rennes players. In the ICI network, we talk a few times with our friends and I can tell you that on the Rennes side, they really want to see Habib Beye finish seventh, with the tracksuit in hand and tell him: ‘Hello, your season is hell and we’re going to make you experience it’. It’s at that point. »
The Stade Rennais locker room still “sour”
The journalist also confirmed that the bitterness was stubborn “for part of the locker room” after Beye’s time on the Stade Rennais bench. He also recalled that, since Beye’s departure for OM, the curve had completely recovered in terms of results and points. Breton side.
In the meantime, this shock for a place in the Europa League should be worth its weight in peanuts. For the moment, it is Rennes who have their ticket in their pocket, with three points in advance but a worse goal difference. A Marseille success and OM would steal fifth place. Any other result will smile on the Rennais.
