The lack of diligence of the owner of Olympique de Marseille has become a real subject for supporters.
Pablo Longoria had a few messages to convey on Tuesday at a press conference. Among the themes raised by the president of Olympique de Marseille was the absence of Frank McCourt. Longoria assures him: the American owner does not have to justify himself.
“We talk about stability but we need pragmatism. The objective and the responsibility is to never say that the season will end badly. We have to do our best to finish the season well. I’ll be clear about my dealings with McCourt. A football club does not have just one owner model. Some go to all the matches, others to none,” explained the Spanish leader.
Longoria comes to McCourt’s aid
Pablo Longoria supported his point by taking a specific example. “In Sassuolo, we never saw the owner and no one asked the question. At Juventus, no one knew the members of the holding company that owned the club. I speak with the McCourt group every week. We have a supervisory board and I have never seen a club where we talk so much per week. »
A media release which confirms, if necessary, that relations between Pablo Longoria and Frank McCourt remain in good shape, despite the rumors of departure of which the Spaniard is the subject.
