The departure of Jean-Pierre Papin to Martigues and Ligue 2 is imminent.
It's a rumor that has been growing for several days, and which could soon come true, but Jean-Pierre Papin would be close to becoming the new coach of FC Martigues, the bottom of Ligue 2. With 9 points taken in 16 games, the management has already made the decision to part ways with Thierry Laurey, and wants a replacement as quickly as possible.
A start on the right track
According to the latest information from RMC Sport, the current coach of the OM reserve is interested in this challenge, and discussions are underway with the L2 resident. The challenge here for Papin is to be able to free himself from his contract with OM, which is not closed upon his departure.
It should be remembered that Papin's adventure in Marseille has taken a strange turn in recent weeks, notably due to his conflict with Ali Zarrak, the head of Pro 2. If everything is not yet resolved, the departure of Papin towards Martigues would be “on the right track”, according to several sources. At 61 years old, he would therefore return to the bench of a professional club since his time at Châteauroux… in 2009-2010.
