“The ‘OM’ schedule, hosting Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday for the Ligue 1 Clasico, and then the arrival of Benfica on April 18 in the quarterfinals of the Europa League, is another argument,” they remarked. from Le Figaro.
“Apart from Jonathan Clauss, and to a lesser extent William Saliba or Mattéo Guendouzi, former home players, few OM footballers play for the French National Team. Unlike PSG, the most represented club, and it will not be easy for Marseille fans to encourage these players before blowing their whistle on Sunday,” they insisted.
