While vagueness still prevails in the matter of the sale of Olympique de Marseille, certain echoes from Saudi Arabia would confirm the imminence of the operation.
Is the sale of Olympique de Marseille about to go through? Some are convinced of this, like David Berger, author of a thunderous announcement last week on the Canal+ set. “Behind the scenes, things are going on for the sale of the club, a subject that we talk very little about, and yet it is getting closer and closer. Saudi Arabia would be interested in buying the club, we are talking about 400 million, as well as an envelope of 200 million for recruitment. This sale could even take place in January, meaning the events of last weekend may have served to speed up the process. First, because Franck McCourt might want to sell. If the asking price, around 400 million, is reached, the sale could materialize more quickly than expected,” he blurted out.
This announcement necessarily reassured Thibaud Vezirian in his certainties. For almost three years now, the former The Team is in fact convinced of the imminence of the transfer of OM to the Saudis. He also brought it up again, evoking rumors this time coming from Saudi Arabia. “ To tell you, today there was a significant exchange. Knowing the way the Saudi media operates, they cannot afford to say anything, especially when nothing has yet been done. He sent me a message in Arabic to ask me why there was sometimes so much hatred from the French on social networks, which he doesn’t understand. he said on his Twich channel.
“It is certain that, in Saudi Arabia, the approach is more direct and respectful, and the sanctions are different there. He congratulated me on my work and confirmed that the announcements had been made, he continued. He also told me that there were other underlying aspects that I wasn’t necessarily aware of. » These sources nevertheless remain as vague as ever and the Marseille supporters who adhere to these convictions are fewer and fewer in number, even if they ardently wish for the sale of OM.
