A decision which notably follows a certain number of disagreements at the top of the pyramid, in particular with Pablo Longoria. Last February, the Olympian president had already tried to temper rumors of tensions between him and Stéphane Tessier. “Sometimes those around us modify the truth because they seek to divide. Stéphane Tessier, I was the one who chose him and I have confidence in him.”he explained at a press conference.

Disagreements with Pablo Longoria but not only…
But these disagreements are not the only reason for his departure since it could also be explained by family reasons which have kept the current director general of OM away in recent weeks. Appointed general manager in the fall of 2023, after arriving at the club in March 2022, Stéphane Tessier had worked hard to structure the club and had put in place a management team to surround Pablo Longoria.

His work is also recognized by Longoria and shareholder Frank McCourt since he contributed to reducing the club’s deficit and initiated strategic projects for the club’s future. Provence also adds that this could be a first step towards the formation of a new organizational chart that Frank McCourt would like to put in place in order to reinforce Pablo Longoria in his position as president. A new era with the aim of restoring confidence in the president after the behind-the-scenes crisis experienced at the start of the season.
