In the summer of 2022, Jorge Sampali did not hesitate to slam the door of OM. Disagreeing with Olympian management due to the transfer window, the Argentinian had packed his bags.

Arrived at OM in the summer of 2021 fromArsenal, Matteo Guendouzi thus integrated the workforce of Jorge Sampaoli. And between the French midfielder and the Argentine coach, it was love at first sight. Indeed, at Marseille, Guendouzi was one of the strong men of Sampaoli. So obviously, when the latter decided to leave loonit was a shock.
“It really hurt me that he left at the end of the season”
In remarks given to So Foot, Matteo Guendouzi returned to this departure from Jorge Sampaoli and how much it saddened him. The ex-playerABOUT today at the Lazio said: “ What do I keep from Sampaoli? An exceptional meeting, and it really hurt me that he left at the end of the season. It was very, very, very, very strong. And the marker, we come back to it, is that you can ask all the players present in the squad that season, everyone had fun. Sampaoli makes you want to believe in his philosophy, in his vision of football, and he also had, I think, the perfect pieces to respond to it. I was already watching a lot of Ligue 1, but I'm going to follow Rennes' matches even more now, that's for sure. It's great for the championship that he's back, and I know it can do something big if all the players agree to follow him ».

Lately it's Cedric Bakambu who spoke about the departure of Jorge Sampaoli of theABOUT. The former Olympian striker explained: “ I really like Jorge Sampaoli. He's a coach who isn't afraid to take risks and that's the style I like. From one week to the next, he can shake up a game system to adapt to this or that team. If during the match he sees that his game plan is not working, he is capable of changing. He is also a coach who is close to his players, he liked to laugh with us, but knew how to put pressure on us when necessary. When you're on the ground, you want to go to war for him. He has a special aura. With him, it was short, but intense. His departure made us sad ».
