We knew that Marcelo was not in the odor of sanctity on the side of Lyon, but we did not imagine that the question of the odor was to be taken at face value.
L'Equipe
reveals on Tuesday that it is a story of the Brazilian defender's flatulence in the locker room, after the slap in Angers (0-3), which marked the beginning of the end of his adventure in the Rhône.
The symbol of a season to forget
"(He) laughs with others, and Juninho, who is not particularly close to Marcelo, comes out of his hinges," says the daily.
The player will then be sidelined, before heading to Bordeaux during the winter.
At the time, the club had justified this banishment by "the inappropriate behavior in the locker room" of its defender.
This anecdote is the strange symbol of a season to forget for the Gones, dull eighth in Ligue 1. Since the start, nothing has been in the right direction.
OL hoped to attack with the 2021 French champion Christophe Galtier, who ultimately preferred Nice.
The second choice, Peter Bosz, never managed to put in place what he wanted, while the sports director Juninho left the ship with a crash in the middle of the crossing.
At the heart of these errors, and in the absence of dynamics, the Lyon locker room was torn.
L'Equipe
even writes that “some players are jealous of each other, others hate each other”.
OL Aulas, a ruthless universe.
