OM: the president of Diambars expected in Marseille – Around OM
In December 2019, OM announced the signing of a partnership with the Diambars Academy, one of the most prestigious in Senegal and on the African continent. A three-year agreement, signed with great fanfare with the presence of Basile Boli, Abedi Pelé, Taye Taiwo, and even Mamadou Niang. The principle is to finance the academy and to send educators there. In return, OM benefits from an option to recruit the two best talents of the institute each year.
But today, The Team confirm the information of Phocean. Indeed, the sports daily affirms that the president of Diambars, Saer Seckis expected in Marseille for the first league match against Reims at the Orange Vélodrome (Sunday August 7 at 8:45 p.m. on First video).
The partnership between the two clubs will obviously be at the center of the subjects, a cooperation which should not be renewed. Indeed, the latter was activated by the former president Jacques-Henri Eyraud Corn Pablo Longoria is not convinced of this collaboration. Back to a project about to be abandoned.
In recent months, ties have weakened between the leaders of OM and those of Diambars
OM immediately indicated the fruits of this partnership by committing Bamba Diengquickly become one of the darlings of the Vélodrome and now has a market price estimated at 10 million euros per transfer market. However, and according to several sources in the Phocean in Senegal and Marseille, the beautiful story is beautiful and is about to end. Indeed, in recent months, ties with Diambars have reportedly become weaker, and an official visit by an Olympian delegation was recently cancelled. Relations between OM and the president of the academy are deteriorating, and the departure of Nasser Larguet would be a determining factor, he who was the main driver of the project. Today, in Senegal, many are also betting on an imminent end to the partnership.
Diambars would claim additional sums from OM for the transfer of each element
Nothing official for the moment, but it is said that the Olympian management team is wondering about the financial conditions of this partnership tied up three years ago by that of Jacques-Henri Eyraud. For example, in addition to the sums paid each year, Diambars would claim additional sums for the transfer of each element. Illogical, while the agreement which allows OM to have priority over two elements each year and for which the club already pays a lot of money should be enough in their minds. In short, if the Diambars-OM adventure ends, it would be for money stories, and it’s a shame when you see the success of the operation Bamba Diengbut also that the academy currently has several very high level U17s.
