Hyères-OM: Mourad Boudjellal steps up to the plate
Just a month away from this Coupe de France match, the blur remains total regarding the place where the meeting will take place. Facing the press this Wednesday, the president of the National 2 club, Mourad Boudjellalreturned to this rather lunar affair, and mentioned the possibility of forfeiting if this match was not played at the Velodrome Stadium.
“This match will be held in the Var, at worst at the Vélodrome, but not elsewhere. If we are not authorized to do so, we will forfeit and we will bear all the consequences.” The French Football Federation should quickly give a decision, hoping that it goes in the direction of what is requested Mourad Boudjellal. In the event of a withdrawal from the Hyères club, it would be a real disappointment for the club’s amateur players, who are almost all OM fans.
