After the departure of sporting director Andoni Zubizaretta, OM coach André Villas-Bolas, who linked his fate to that of the director, could also leave Marseille. Even without a match, OM plunges into a new crisis, and could find itself without staff by the summer, on the back of rumor of takeover. 

After "Zubi", Villas-Boas? The day after the announcement of the departure of the sports director of Olympique de Marseille Andoni Zubizarreta, will coach André Villas-Boas follow him and leave OM in turn? "He is able to leave overnight" advance Marc Libbra, former player of Marseille and consultant for Europe 1. A departure all the more likely that last January, at our microphone, the Portuguese coach claimed to be came to Marseille for "the greatness of the club and for Zubi". While specifying that his "future is intimately linked within".

While he recently reminded that he needed guarantees to stay on the OM bench next season, the club president, Jacques-Henri Eyraud, has just taken one away. 

"Jacques-Henri Eyraud does not live on the same football planet as everyone else"

While rumors of a possible takeover by a Saudi businessman are becoming more and more pressing, Marseille could therefore find itself this summer without a sports director, without a coach, and without money. The last straw for a team whose objective is to reconnect with the most prestigious of European competitions, the Champions League. "I think Jacques-Henri Eyraud does not live on the same football planet as everyone else, because Villas-Bolas has clearly linked his destiny to 'Zubi'", comments on the microphone of Europe 1 Marc Libbra.

"All the people of Marseille recognize that the Portuguese did an extraordinary job with their arrival in the Champions League", a first since 2013. "We are in a completely crazy situation with a blue sky and this story which will start a real war in within OM. "
