A lot has happened in the last four days. Once Bakary Koné was signed from Nice, Pape Diouf told the press that the Mercato was over for us, unless some other players leave. This of course came as a surprise as many players were believed to still be on their way out, namely Karim Ziani, [...]

The soap of the summer (incredibly short by other season’s standards) is finally over and done with. Bakary Koné and Nice came to an agreement this morning when the player decided to let them have part of the 630.000 Euros he was entitled to (7% of his tranfer, a clause similar to Ben Arfa’s) in [...]
Hatem Ben Arfa and Djibril Cissé already fighting…

If asked which one of our players had the biggest ego, I’m pretty sure most people would answer either “Djibril Cissé” or “Hatem Ben Arfa“, or both. That might be true since the two have been. Or at least they’re “acting” like they have bigger egos than most people. And apparently these two firey tempers [...]

President Maurice Cohen gave Pape Diouf and his Marseille counterparts an ultimatum stating that if Marseille didn’t give them what they were asking for on tuesday (that’s yesterday not next week), Bakary Koné would remain a Nice player for at least one more season.
Pape Diouf didn’t seem all that impressed with the declarations and believed [...]
The “Drogbathon” is in full effect…

A group of incredibly commited supporters (led by the 24 year-old Mathieu Gomila aka “Kain34″) decided to see if the marseillais fans across the world could virtually pay Chelsea to bring back Didier Drogba to the Vélodrome and maybe make sure the Marseille staff and the superstar aware of their initiative.
The price set by the [...]

So, after a few days of doubt, Hatem Ben Arfa is offically a Marseille player. After having proved numerous times in a very short period how much he wanted to play for us newt season (going as far as to refuse Real Madrid offers while Lyon’s Michel Facciolli was dangling it in front of his [...]
The Ben Arfiles: Ben Arfa is a Marseillais, again.
By: Magnusson | 4 Comments
This time I can assure you it’s done. Both clubs came to terms of agreement with the help of the juridic commision of the LFP presided over by Frederic Thiriez. It was a really short meeting and I think both presidents understood how stupid they looked in this petty fight and these two brilliant individuals [...]

In his first Eric Gerets training, Hatem camme out smiling and radiant. He added that he wanted to reiterate the fact that [...]

Mute ever since the “Hatem Ben Arfa Affair” started, Claude Puel was the first to fire this sunday morning in L’Equipe. The newly appointed [...]
