The sale of Olympique de Marseille is well and truly underway and should be completed at the end of the season.
The soap opera surrounding the sale of Olympique de Marseille has resumed. While L’Equipe confirmed last month Saudi Arabia’s interest in the Marseille club, as well as Frank McCourt’s XXL financial claims, some consider the deal closed or at least on the right track. Le Quotidien du Sport recently assured that the American businessman’s objective was to finalize the sale before the end of the year.
Recently, it was France Bleu Provence which put a coin in the rumor machine by affirming that Saudi investors had already agreed with Zinedine Zidane for him to become the new coach of Ciel et Blanc, with an expanded role since he would also be in charge of the transfer window. Enough to obviously make Olympian supporters salivate, especially in view of the recent events which have hit OM.
By next year normally, it will be done
Among them, the famous influencer and YouTuber Bengous made his own revelations. For him, the sale is indeed ” on the right track “ but should not be completed before the end of the season. “ Okay guys, I think it’s time to talk to you about what’s being said here in Saudi Arabia and what I’ve been hearing here and there with people who are really serious. It’s on the right track and I think it’s now a matter of time. This is not going to happen in a month or in the next six months. I think that the season itself, we will let it pass whether there is qualification for the Champions League or not “, he explained on social networks.
“ We’ve been going around in circles for 10 years without winning a title, it’s always the same song, we can’t find an investor. This really seems concrete to me. When it talks about Zidane at OM, it directly gives me chills. Now we will have to wait because these are not things that will be done quickly. But by next year normally, it will be done,” he continued live from Saudi Arabia.
