Following the departure of Marcelinol’ABOUT began looking for a new coach and the choice ultimately fell on Gennaro Gattuso. Passed by the bench Milan ACof Naples or even Valencethe Italian therefore put down his suitcases near Marseille to take charge of the Marseille club. A big challenge for Gattusowho would have taken 24 hours to decide to give the green light to Pablo Longoria.
“I asked for a day of reflection to give my decision”
During an interview given this Saturday to L’Equipe, Gennaro Gattuso returned to his arrival at theABOUT. The Olympian coach then confided: “I was coming out of a week where I spoke with Lyon. And three or four days after my discussions with OL were interrupted, Pablo (Longoria) called me. I knew what type of team OM was, I asked for a day of reflection to give my decision. I called my staff, we started working, we got an idea. And we decided to come, without any worry or hesitation.”
“You have to have two lives to say no to an adventure like this”
“I’ve said it before, you have to have two lives to say no to an adventure like this, and I only have one. (…) If there had not been difficulties, they would not have called me. When we arrived, we changed the style of play, the way of working. We knew we were probably going to drop points along the way. But what I liked right away was that I found a group of incredible guys, who jumped in behind us from day one,” added Gennaro Gattusonow coach of theABOUT.
