For several hours, the rumor, mentioned by RMC Sport, the arrival of Christophe Galtier on the OM bench swells. Born in Marseille, the 57-year-old technician is coming out of a complicated experience at Paris Saint-Germain. After this one-year freelance in the capital, his image was tarnished in Canebière. Now persona non grata on his native lands, the former coach of ASSE and OGC Nice is not necessarily expected by Marseille supporters. This is precisely one of his reserves while he is excited by the Marseille sports project. And the fact that he will be judged on December 15 for moral harassment and discrimination following his visit to Nice clearly does not help his affairs.
Asked about a possible arrival of Galtier in Marseille, Jérôme Rothen, on the antennas of RMCclearly stated his disagreement with this possibility against a backdrop of PSG-OM rivalry: “I am surprised. I think he’s doing a good job with OM, but here I think he’s got it all wrong. He is Spanish, he sees the Barça-Real rivalry, how can a Real coach find himself in Catalonia two months later? It is not possible. In France, we must not accept this. I put the qualities of Christophe Galtier aside, he remains a very good coach, but the fact remains that he chose PSG. Now, he will explain to us that he is the man for the job and that he will allow OM to be at the top? I don’t want him to fall into the image of some coaches who are eels.»
