Now in Brazil, Dimitri Payet spoke this Monday for French television.
After two stints at Olympique de Marseille between 2013 and 2015 then between 2017 and 2023, Dimitri Payet had to leave the Marseille city a year and a half ago and joined the Brazilian club Vasco da Gama. But the story between the Réunionnais and the Olympian club is not over. Guest this Monday on the show L'Équipe de Greg on the L'Équipe channel, the former number 10 confirmed that he would return to Marseille for his post-career.
“There was this departure. But with Marseille, it’s very clear, there is something signed. There will be a return to the club. We will discuss more details in time. I want to help, be useful in helping OM grow. It’s signed so there will be a return,” assured the 37-year-old, who also spoke about his future as a player. “Honestly, what scares me the most is seeing the end coming. I really enjoy going to training and still playing, so I don't tell myself that the end is near. »
Payet ignites for De Zerbi
Dimitri Payet was also questioned about the start of the Olympian season and the arrival of Roberto De Zerbi on his bench. “I keep an eye on OM, because it’s the club where I spent the most time. I watch every game unless I'm playing at the same time. When Roberto De Zerbi was announced, I was the first to congratulate the president. He is a coach who can do something big in Marseille, a football that can please our supporters. Even if we don't have time in Marseille, we have to take the time to build something concrete to go far. »
