Olympique de Marseille is sinking into crisis. The day after their draw against Paris FC, and four days after their debacle in the Champions League against Club Bruges (3-0), synonymous with European elimination, the Marseillais continue to sink. This Sunday, tensions arose at the Commanderie, the Phocéens training center.
According to information from La Provence that we can confirm, Roberto De Zerbi was particularly vehement towards Amir Murillo, whom he accuses of several blunders against the Parisians. The defender will now play with the reserve team and could even leave the club quite quickly. An altercation also broke out between Geoffrey Kondogbia and Arthur Vermeeren, the Belgian not appreciating several harsh interventions during training.
Two days before the reception of Rennes in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France, the atmosphere is therefore detestable within the Marseille group soon to be reinforced by the Algerian international midfielder from Angers Himad Abdelli (Matt O’Riley should return to Brighton).
The supporters are also not happy with the turn of events and the poor results of recent weeks. A visit by the leaders of the supporter groups is also planned at La Commanderie to try to exchange calmly. Players, management and staff should be present.
