OM: Saudi Arabia misses the July 1st meeting

Icon Sport

The hypothesis of a sale of Olympique de Marseille to the Saudis looks more and more like a mirage. And some supporters are starting to see red.

Many people had mentioned the date of June 30 as being the deadline for a possible formalization of the sale of OM to a consortium led by the Saudis. But it is July 1st and the only announcement made on the Marseille side is that of the signing of Roberto de Zerbi as coach, with the addition of a little note from Frank McCourt to be delighted that the Italian technician is joining his club. So, some defenders of the theory of a sale looked at documents linked to the organization of the OM company to try to make people believe that Saudi Arabia is already hiding in the offices of the Marseille club, but this does not take more. And Thibaud Vézirian is increasingly the target of virulent attacks, he who does not want to budge on the sale of McCourt’s club.

Video montage sends Zidane to OM

This Monday, the journalist fromInterview has ringing ears, proof that some people really believed that something was going to happen before the end of June. And the lack of movement on the side of OM encourages them to demand accountability from TV by using some of its famous formulas: “ Hello, it’s the digital army! Trolls, fake accounts created by the bad guys to discredit your international investigation… Tibo! Come out of your closet, we need to talk! », « Unfortunately with the results of the country’s current legislative elections, VenteOM will be postponed again. Understand that our Saudi friends do not want to invest in a racist country », « Is it me or since De Zerbi was made official when I go to #VenteOM I see exomil boxes on the ground and I hear my echo? “Some have even created a montage in which Zinedine Zidane’s face replaces that of Roberto de Zerbi during the presentation video posted online on Saturday by OM. Everyone is now waiting for explanations for this delay in the fireworks promised for the summer of 2024.
