André Villas-Boas and the Olympique de Marseille, it's over.
A few hours after the resignation by the Portuguese coach, revealed in the middle of a press conference, the Marseille club decided to lay off as a precaution.
“This protective decision has become inevitable given the recent repetition of actions and attitudes which seriously harm the Marseille Olympic institution and its employees who defend it on a daily basis.
The comments made today at a press conference with regard to Pablo Longoria, director general in charge of football, are unacceptable.
Its exceptional investment can not be called into question and was on the contrary welcomed by all during this winter transfer window marked by an unprecedented crisis.
Possible sanctions will be taken against André Villas-Boas at the end of a disciplinary procedure ”, explains OM in a press release.
The Olympique de Marseille announces the dismissal as a conservatory of André Villas-Boas.
