Holder of a Master’s degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents’ dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
OM missed out this season. Despite a victory against Le Havre (1-2) on the last day, the Phocéens finished 8th in Ligue 1, one place behind the last European qualifier, RC Lens. For Jérôme Rothen, the main person responsible for this failure is Frank McCourt. But present on the RMC set, Jean-Michel Larqué pointed out the decisions of Pablo Longoria.
Disappointment for OM. The Marseille club will not play any European competition next season. Bad news for the club’s finances. According to information from ProvenceFrank McCourt will arrive at Marseille with the ambition of relaunching the sports project. For Jerome Rothen, it is necessary for the owner of the OM to take back the keys to the truck.
Rothen calls out McCourt live
“ When you’ve invested so much money, what are you waiting for to show your face? When is he going to take the keys to the truck and put the church back in the middle of the village? Mr. McCourt, realize that it’s a bit of a mess at OM” declared the former player of the PSG on RMC. But for Jean-Michel Larquéthe main person responsible for this failure is called Pablo Longoria.
“The one who didn’t run the club is not the one who put in the money”
“ In a club, everyone has their place. McCourt was the one who brought the oil, the money. But how can you blame someone for putting in a lot of money. There is a deputy president, a director, scouts, a sports director. There is everything you need. McCourt did not want to be in the vicinity of a deputy president whose role is to run the club. The one who did not keep the club running was not the one who put in the money, it was the deputy president, who himself did not show enormous competence, who surrounded himself with people who were supposedly the strong men of OM ” did he declare.
