Pablo Longoria files a complaint for defamation against the journalist Stéphane Guy. Guy implied that Longoria had taken advantage of his position at OM to enrich himself personally, to the detriment of the club.
Owner of Olympique de Marseille, Franck McCourt, supported Pablo Longoria in the face of irresponsible and unfounded comments. Marseille returns to the field this Thursday, as the French club faces Shakhtior Donetsk in the round of 16 first leg of the Europa League.
