Foot OM – OM: The Gueye file is clean, guaranteed by Eyraud

Wednesday afternoon, Olympique de Marseille formalized the arrival of Pope Gueye (21) from Le Havre.

Last January, the neo-Marseillais had signed a pre-contract in favor of Watford, which he finally decided to break unilaterally, his entourage having quickly expressed large reservations about the validity of the contract. But on the Watford side, we waited Pope Gueye firmly in training starting yesterday. Faced with this absence, the English club will take legal steps to obtain compensation. But according to a lawyer specializing in conciliation interviewed by RMC, Olympique de Marseille fears almost nothing in this matter.

“OM hardly risks anything. We saw it at the time with the players who left Sporting Portugal. The risk is mainly on the player. Watford should prepare for a trial which should take at least a year before a judgment. And besides, the player could then appeal to the CAS and it would take at least two years. Clearly to make things easier, Watford would be well advised to contact OM to find a small friendly agreement » said this lawyer, for whom this file is therefore 100% clean, at least on the side of Olympique de Marseille, who could complete the case with all the same a small indemnity to be paid to be quiet. Information that proves that the lawyers of Olympique de Marseille and that Jacques-Henri Eyraud had studied this file in depth before formalizing the signing of the 4-year contract of Pape Gueye, who joined the group at the end of Wednesday from Marseille, interning in Faro in Portugal.
