A group of fans of a club considering hiring Roberto De Zerbi are upset that he found excuses for Mason Greenwood after the latter assaulted his partner. Departed from OM on February 11, three days after a defeat at the Parc des Princes, Roberto De Zerbi is awaiting a new challenge. It could come from Tottenham, where he would succeed another former Marseille player, Igor Tudor. The Croatian has won only one match out of seven, saw his team eliminated from the Champions League, and lost a crucial match for survival against Nottingham Forest (0-3). Despite his energetic approach to shake up the team, the former defender’s efforts have not been successful. With just one point ahead of the relegation zone, the London club cannot afford to wait for a turnaround to happen.
A group of Tottenham fans, the LGBTQI+ association Proud Lilywhites, has issued a statement urging the THFC not to hire Robert De Zerbi due to his defense of Mason Greenwood. RDZ has been vocal in supporting Greenwood and advocating for forgiveness for his actions. This has caused controversy in England, where Greenwood’s reputation remains tarnished.
Will Tottenham heed this message from the fans, who are already unhappy with the club’s management? In France, Greenwood’s recruitment by OM caused a stir, but in England, his actions have not been forgotten, despite him still being with his partner and recently having a second child. If Tottenham decides against hiring RDZ for this reason, it is likely that other Premier League clubs will follow suit.
Upcoming matches for OM: – 04/05: Monaco vs. OM (28th round of Ligue 1) – 12/04: OM vs. Metz (29th round of Ligue 1) – 19/04: Lorient vs. OM (30th round of Ligue 1) – 26/04: OM vs. Nice (31st round of Ligue 1) – 03/05: Nantes vs. OM (32nd round of Ligue 1) – 09/05: Le Havre vs. OM (33rd round of Ligue 1) – 16/05: OM vs. Rennes (34th round of Ligue 1)
