Between rumors more or less fanciful of sales to a Saudi magnate, blackmail in the recruitment of AVB, and proven concerns in the short term financial, the return of OM to the Champions League next season does not take place in a calm Olympian, to do in the pun. Especially since the relations between the group and Jacques-Henri Eyraud do not seem to be heating up, quite the contrary.

In a tasty article, the Team of the day (Monday) reveals the underside of the negotiations between JHE and the players on the ultra-sensitive theme of the drop in wages, while the Marseillais continue to receive 84% of their net salary since the stop from the L1 to mid-March. While the management would await a significant gesture (which would go up to 50%), the players do not want to let anything go since their president decided to freeze the bonuses of victories at the end of last summer, despite the good season of OM.

According to @lequipe, Mandanda even asked Eyraud for a partial reimbursement of the boxes that the players rent year-round due to the end of the season. pic.twitter.com/oOOkZH5fuG

Thus, the impeccable Mandanda, voted best Olympian of the season by the supporters, would have asked on behalf of the group for a partial reimbursement of the boxes that the players rent for the year at the Stade Vélodrome because of the end of the season, while that no one intends to waive the qualification bonuses for the C1, which can reach 600,000 euros for the size of the workforce. This is a bad genre when financial fair play lurks around.
