Rothen does not see OM blowing the title to PSG
Despite their more than mediocre end to the season, PSG are still on pole to clinch the Ligue 1 title, even if OM are in ambush, five points behind. But according to Jérôme Rothen, the club of the capital will not miss the eleventh coronation of its history for the benefit of its Marseille rival.
“The Marseillais are forced to believe in it, it’s natural. Now, it doesn’t belong to them. It belongs above all to PSG, reminds our consultant in his show Rothen ignites on RMC. We must not make people believe that everything is possible. There is still a very favorable calendar for PSG over the next two days (in Troyes and against Ajaccio), against two teams that are very bad and almost already relegated. Even with a very small PSG, like this has been the case in recent weeks, I remain convinced that PSG will be champions. But there will be regrets in Marseille, I think, for not having believed in it a little bit before. It seems to me that a little bit was missing something over the last few months to get over it. Afterwards, at the accounting level, it’s still wonderful what they can do.”

“Monaco and Marseille must be furious,” laments Montanier
Winner of the Coupe de France on Saturday, Toulouse will already be back on the pitch on Tuesday, with the reception of Lens during the 33rd day of Ligue 1. If the TFC seems to have already ensured its maintenance, the RCL is competing for second place at distance with OM. See the title. A program that surprised Philippe Montanier, at a press conference:
“It bothers us to play so early, because it’s not very fair sportingly, points out the TFC coach. We have to pay attention to sporting fairness. We would have preferred to play Wednesday, like Nantes. Monaco and Marseille must be furious.”
Nantes terminates the contract of a U17 player, who left to play the CAN with Algeria without his agreement
Member of the Nantes U17 team, Younes Ben Ali recently told Nantes of his desire to play the CAN U17 with Algeria. The club told him that it refused this request because these are dates outside Fifa. It is not a question of nationality. The club simply wanted to keep him in Nantes at the end of the season in the U17 championship. He was told that his contract would be terminated if he played this competition without the agreement of the club.
After the player’s departure from CAN against his will, Nantes drafted an amendment to Ben Ali’s contract to terminate it. The player chose not to sign him. The player’s adviser did not understand his decision to play this competition. The player was also in open conflict with his U17 coach in Nantes, Francis Liaigre.
Present at a press conference with the Algerian U17 team on Monday, Ben Ali commented on his situation: “Since I was young, I have played at FC Nantes. And as many know, I am in love with this club, it is my club of heart. I have always respected the FCN, since I was little I did everything there. This year, I had the opportunity to represent my country, Algeria. It is not given to everyone the world to represent this country. It’s a source of great pride. I did everything well. With the club, we didn’t really agree on a few points. I respected everything I had to do. I decided to go to Algeria. I was not disrespectful. I made the choice to respect my country and it must be respected. Afterwards, there are some who do not agree with me. But the more important is to go as far as possible in the African Cup.”

“They are good, but we are good too”, Tudor launches the Lens-OM shock
Returning to five points from PSG, OM can still believe in the title of champion of France. Igor Tudor only projects himself on the trip to Lens on Saturday (9 p.m.), duel at the top in the fight for second place in Ligue 1.
“It’s a very important match for us, warned the Croatian coach at the microphone of Prime Video. I still remember the first leg (0-1 defeat, October 22), it was a fantastic match. I think that “We deserved the victory more than them, but they were the ones who won. It will be difficult because they are good, but we are good too. People are going to appreciate all this, it will be good football. It will be important to win.”
Messi is in Saudi Arabia
The day after PSG’s defeat against Lorient (1-3), Lionel Messi was spotted at Riyadh airport, capital of Saudi Arabia. The Argentinian would be there as part of his lucrative contract as the country’s tourism ambassador.
At the end of the contract with Paris this summer, Messi is also courted by the Saudi championship which would like to offer him a golden bridge.
Donnarumma defends Galtier
Gianluigi Donnarumma, PSG goalkeeper, regretted the many criticisms against Christophe Galtier, whose defense he defended after the defeat against Lorient (1-3). “Everyone is with the coach, we are sad about the current situation but we are close to him, assured the Italian. But we are working because winning the championship for us is important. We are all with the coach , with a lot of desire, because we know we have to win for him. There are a lot of criticisms of the coach that we don’t like. We all have to stay united to win the championship.” (AV)
