This Monday, Provence reveals that Marseille officials have decided to dismiss Marco Otero, technical director in charge of training. This brutal end had been taking shape for quite some time, but both camps tried to find an amicable solution before finally this choice of a brutal divorce was validated by OM's lawyers and announced to the first person concerned. And to prove that Olympique de Marseille clearly had a head start for this highly strategic position, since OM now wishes to focus on training, we already know the name of Marco Otero's successor.

Arriving in the summer of 2022, the Spanish technician, more or less closeted, will be replaced by Lassad Hasni, native of Marseille and who has already worked for the Marseille club. Until last week, Lassad Hasni was the director of pre-training at OGC Nice, but he left his position a few days ago and is therefore preparing to return to OM where his reputation is no longer to do and where he will already have the absolute confidence of all the teams in place.
All this reflects Pablo Longoria's desire to allow Olympique de Marseille to finally have a training center capable of providing Roberto De Zerbi with young talented players, trading not being the solution to the problem either. all of OM's concerns. Recently traveling to the Vélodrome, Frank McCourt validated with his president this decision to give more resources to training, this resulted in a first radical change.
