Rebellion in French football club Marseille - Players asked to speak with management
Are there problems in the French football club? The season hasn't even started, and things aren't as they should be in Marseille, with the new season just around the corner. The new coach Igor Tudor, who joined the club at the beginning of July, has bad relations with several players.
What happened? According to verified sources, several players complain about the coach's way of working, and they do not like the way the Croatian coach treats them. The Croatian coach is supposedly friendly off the field, but everything changes when he steps on the field. The players reportedly don't like him yelling at them and getting in their faces during training.
But not only the players have a problem with the new coach. After just one week, assistant coach Mauro Camoranesi left the club. The captain of the team, Dimitri Payet, requested a meeting with the president of the club in order to find a solution to the conflict between the coach and the players, thus trying to calm the situation before the start of the season.
Olympique de Marseille registered one victory from five friendly matches, and after the last defeat, the players were booed. Olympique de Marseille has a match against Stade de Reims. Ahead of the team are many open questions and a rather bleak season.
