Due to his (supposed) past, the new Marseille recruit is not unanimous. Pascal Dupraz does not understand how Pablo Longoria was able to recruit a player with such a “skull”.
On Friday, Mason Greenwood was officially presented to the press by Olympique de Marseille. Recruited from Manchester United for 31 million euros, the 21-year-old English striker signed a five-year contract with the Marseille club.
Except that his recruitment by the Marseille club continues to cause controversy. Pascal Drupaz does not support it. “They should have left the table immediately. For me, a guy who hits a girl, who commits violence against a woman, he must be condemned! We are unanimous on that! I now position myself in relation to Olympique de Marseille. It is a big French club, a commercial company, the only one that can compete with PSG. If I had been in Pablo Longoria’s place, and I never will be, I would not have taken it!”judged the sports consultant, this Sunday morning, on the airwaves of RMC.
Greenwood to OM, ” it’s shocking “
Dupraz believes that this is a moral error on the part of the OM president. “We forget one thing, they pay him 31 million euros, the player will have enormous pressure with the supportershe imagines. So you follow my reasoning. Now, Longoria took the risk of doing it, because he is a talented player. Football-wise, it’s a good move, but I wouldn’t have done it because I find it shocking.”
On January 30, 2022, Greenwood was charged with domestic violence and attempted rape by his partner Harriet Robson. A trial was set for November of that year, but the charges were ultimately dropped.
