The conflict between Jean-Pierre Papin and the management of Olympique de Marseille is becoming clearer. New leaks have provided a better understanding of what the Marseille legend is accused of.
Two versions oppose each other. The Team announces that Olympique de Marseille criticizes Jean-Pierre Papin for a problematic attitude. He would display a form of lightness and nonchalance little appreciated by management. The OM reserve coach would sometimes arrive at training with his dogs, something strictly forbidden. Worse, the French tactician would sometimes appear with the jersey of other teams during sessions. Enough to irritate his hierarchy, also unexcited by his reluctance to follow Roberto de Zerbi's instructions.
The Italian coach would have imposed some guidelines for the positioning and playing time of certain players. The sports management would like to see Darryl Bakola evolve as a relay player, where the staff would sometimes use him as a nine player, with success. Other debates focus on the use of nuggets, like Robinio Vaz, who arrived from Sochaux last summer.
For his part, Papin refutes Provence his allegations. He would claim to have no problem with the demands of De Zerbi or Marcelo Iaia. On the other hand, the 1991 Ballon D'Or would assume disagreements with Ali Zarrak, manager of the Elite group. The latter would be involved in team compositions, tactical choices and man management. Certain names would be imposed or removed from the starting eleven. Refusal of the reserve manager to listen to this, preferring to maintain a certain freedom, the main source of discord.
Papin would mention facts close to moral harassment. Worse, a man on a motorbike would be seen in front of his house shouting: “Get the hell out of the club.” A complaint was filed and OM would have made its lawyers available, joining forces with its technician.
Papin could well leave OM despite his dream of being champion of N3, a meeting would have been organized in the coming days to decide on the continuation of the collaboration between the two parties. We wonder how the leader of his National 3 group will recover from such tension.
