Holder of a Master's degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents' dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
Nobody denies it. Before signing for OM, Roberto de Zerbi had initiated discussions with Manchester United, who were already thinking of thanking Erik Ten Hag. But if the Italian technician did not give his agreement to the Red Devils, it is quite simply because the English management would have refused him certain prerogatives.
Roberto de Zerbi has an original way of motivating his days. On August 17, before a match against Brest, the OM coach had presented a contract, the one received by Manchester United during the summer. “ This is the contract they offered me, a contract for several seasons, with the salary you imagine. This is where I haven't been, because I put my passion before money. I came to Marseille for passion » would have blurted out By Zerbi in front of a conquered locker room. But the Italian technician would have neglected to release some details.
Truth comes out about Manchester United interest?
Because according to Mathieu Grégoire, De Zerbi was ready to join Manchester United, but some of his requests were not accepted. “ On the fact that he preferred OM to Manchester United, he negotiated with Manchester but I think they did not reach an agreement. I think it's more like that, he likes to get involved in the transfer window. And OM rolled out the red carpet for him. Never in the history of OM has a coach been so associated with the transfer window » confided the journalist from The Team during an interview given to Youss TV.
De Zerbi failed by Bayern Munich?
Also coveted by the Bayern Munich, De Zerbi enjoys a sulphurous reputation in Europe, which does not help it to obtain the support of the big names. “This coach discovers something that should allow him to discover a big club. Because the big teams still have doubts about him, about his management. Otherwise, Bayern Munich would have chosen him instead of Kompany” he blurted.
