“ It remains the priority, but in this context, the talks are less obvious. There is a lot of uncertainty on the OM side, about its presence in the European Cup next season, about the shape of the squad, about the envelope which will allow it to be strengthened… », Confided a person close to the matter to the sports daily.
In the event of failure, the Olympian decision-makers would have checked two other names to succeed Jean-Louis Gasset, again according to the sports media. These would be Franck Haise, highly appreciated by Pablo Longoria, and Sergio Conceiçao, who would be favored by Mehdi Benatia.
