Marcelino’s departure is imminent. There was still uncertainty on Tuesday evening, but the Marseille coach said goodbye to the OM players.
Three short months and then it’s gone. Although there has not yet been an official announcement, Marcelino’s departure is now almost complete. If he had already warned his players the day before, the Spanish coach said goodbye to them this Wednesday. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and the rest of the Marseille squad flew to Amsterdam to play against Ajax on Thursday, as part of the Europa League. Marcelino therefore stayed at home.
It is The Team who confirmed the information, while also indicating that Jacques Abardonado should take over as interim, unless it is the club’s sporting director, David Friio, who takes over. Marcelino stayed only three months on the OM bench, he who had arrived to succeed Igor Tudor. The Spanish technician and his 4-4-2 will not have convinced the supporters.
Longoria must find the solution
It now remains for Pablo Longoria to find a successor. Not easy in such a short time, especially since the Marseille president has withdrawn until further notice after the supporters’ coup during a meeting this Tuesday. Atmosphere, atmosphere.
