The director of football has confided for a long time on the OM season and his personal situation while the club crosses a difficult pass.<\/p>\n

\n

Medhi Benatia spoke for a long time in the daily La Provence<\/a> This Saturday to sweep away all the news of Olympique de Marseille which is going through a complicated pass while the sprint for the qualification in the Champions League is underway. The director of football of the Marseille club does not handle the language of wood by evoking this priority objective. “Without Champions League, it would be a disaster”<\/em>he warns before the championship day and after a rout against Monaco (0-3). \u201cOur goal today is clear: to win against Montpellier. We remain third, and we have our destiny in our hands. You have to move forward step by step, without looking further \u201d<\/em>explains the former player while the team is not entitled to the V\u00e9lodrome against Montpellier, the red lantern.<\/p>\n

The obsession with qualification for C1<\/h2>\n

To get a place in C1, Benatia counts on Roberto de Zerbi, the coach he defended by evoking the tremors within the locker room after the rout against Reims. \u201cHe was angry and disappointed because he gives a lot to his group, he is an emotional. (…) When the coach reads in the team he lost his group, he is bruised. This is absolutely false (…) No player is against the coach. Ask Rulli, Kondogbia, Hojbjerg, Rabiot … Even Bamo Me\u00eft\u00e9, who did not play in the first six months, never came to criticize the coach. He gives love to everyone, and even a little too much for my taste \u201d<\/em>explained the Moroccan who also underlines the particular environment of OM, a separate club, subject to permanent external pressures. “I have never seen an environment where it is not going on the field, people from the interior of the club seek to sow Zizania!” I have never known that! People think it's normality, I call it mediocrity. “<\/em><\/p>\n

His destiny linked to that of Longoria<\/h2>\n

The former defender of Bayern Munich also mentioned his personal situation and his future which is directly linked to that of Pablo Longoria, the president, of which he is very close. “” Regardless of my love for OM, I came for Pablo (Longoria).<\/em> The day Pablo (Longoria) leaves, I'm going<\/em> “, He insisted by evoking the possibility of activating a secret clause in his contract” of which no one knows<\/em> \u00bb.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
