Marseille is experiencing sluggishness recently. He was eliminated at the bottom of the Champions League group stage and was defeated 1-2 in Trophy des Champs against Paris Saint-Germain. In the last five games in the league, he fell back to 9th in the league with 1 draw and 4 losses.
This winter’s transfer market was very important to turn the atmosphere in Marseille. However, the team’s key midfielder, Morgang Sangsong, was transferred to Aston Villa. Marseilles enlisted Celtic midfielder Oliver Eun-Cham to fill the vacancy in Morgang Sang-song, but did not satisfy Villas-Boas.
“I’ve been notified of my resignation because I don’t agree with the club’s policy,” said Villas Boaz at a press conference ahead of the match against Lens. “I didn’t do anything,” he said, “Eun-champ is the player I was against signing. I didn’t know if he had signed up, so I woke up in the morning and confirmed it through the press. He revealed that he was notified that he would leave the club that had been recruited against his will.
“I don’t want money. I just want to leave. I don’t want anything from Marseille,” said Villas Boaz. “I gave my opinion on Sangsong’s alternative resources. As a pro, I can’t accept what’s happening right now,” he angered.
Meanwhile, on the 31st of last month, Marseille exploded smoke bombs and threw firecrackers at the training grounds of fans who were dissatisfied with their recent poor performance. It strongly demanded the withdrawal of management, including the resignation of Chairman Jacques-Henri Ero.
