We believe that the minimum respect due to the people and professionals who run the club, the very people who placed their trust in us and chose us to lead the team, has been violated here. Today’s unstable situation clearly indicates that the sports project for which we were recruited cannot be carried out.

We arrived at OM with the ambition of restoring this great club to its rightful place in Europe. We would like to especially thank the president and his steering committee who gave us the opportunity to build an ambitious sporting project for the future.

We set out to achieve the desired objectives and, given our professional experience, were convinced of the team’s rise, its progress was there. As proof, after five days, OM are in fourth place in Ligue 1 (tied on points with third) and this, without having experienced defeat. At the same time, we also managed to be one of two teams to have conceded the fewest goals and one of three clubs, therefore, to remain undefeated on the national scene.

The desire for intimidation and the individual attacks of which the president and his steering committee were the target on Monday, while the championship is only in its 5th day, suggest an uncertain future during which working conditions will not be are not the most appropriate to exercise our profession with safety and in the normality usually inherent in a football club.

We would like to thank all the players on the squad for their magnificent commitment to their work and their support for our ideas. We would also like to thank the club’s employees who made it easier for us, from day one, to integrate into this great club. Very big thank you to them and “hasta siempre». »
