Again invited to discuss the sale of OM, Thibaud Vézirian confirms that it is indeed a Saudi fund that should take over the Marseille club.

For more than a year, Thibaud Vézirian never ceases to ensure that theABOUT is sold. And yet, no formalization has taken place for the moment and conversely, these are the denials of Frank McCourt which is linked. Despite everything, the journalist never changed his tune and kept repeating that the sale of theABOUT has been closed for a long time. Besides, Thibaud Vézirian added a layer to repeat that it would probably be a Saudi fund that would take over from Frank McCourt very soon.

Vézirian announces the arrival of Saudi Arabia

« Very clearly, and all the sources and the files showed it in February 2021, it was therefore a Saudi investment fund which took the helm of Olympique de Marseille last year. In one year, I haven’t had access to all the meetings and I don’t think I know everything about this file, far from it, so we can expect changes when it becomes official, changes in the percentage acquirers, but it would be surprising if it was no longer the same country or the same people. In any case, what you need to know about this country is that it is very vertical, all decisions come from Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, it can be distributed at the level of the sovereign fund, the PIF, and that -this is financed by, in particular, KHC (Kingdom Holding Company), an investment fund owned by Al-Walid ben Talal who is at Amazon, Disney, Apple, so big businessmen known worldwide. You should know that Saudi Arabia is very vertical, so these are state decisions, but as Newcastle was partly bought by the sovereign fund, it will be difficult to display the sovereign fund at OM, since just like Red Bull with Salzburg and Leipzig, you cannot have the same entity to play the European Cup at the same time “, he launches to CM Football.
