The transfer of Pau Lopez to RC Lens fell through, and OM did not hide their anger. Find out why the Marseille club points the finger at Lens after this unexpected failure.
Pau Lopez’s loan to RC Lens turned into a fiasco, and Olympique de Marseille did not hesitate to point the finger at the northern club. Through a detailed press release, OM wanted to explain the reasons for this failure, accusing Lens of premature communication. An exit which fuels tensions between the two clubs.
A transfer aborted at the last moment
Everything seemed set for the Spanish goalkeeper, under contract with Girona until January 22, to join Lens on loan. However, Girona imposed a delay due to the injury of their third goalkeeper, delaying the deal until after a crucial Champions League match. Faced with this situation, Lens decided to withdraw from the operation, which OM bitterly regrets.
In its press release, OM specified: “Although the general agreement remained valid, RC Lens freely decided to put an end to this operation. »
Lens in the viewfinder of OM
OM also criticized the management of communication by Lens, accusing it of having announced the arrival of Pau Lopez too early without legal guarantee. An accusation which caused the Lensois leaders to react privately, who consider this public outing unjustified.
