La Provence: Ravanelli Sidelined at Marseille, Exit Reported to Be Near

The paper says he remains on the organigram without carrying out the adviser role since the end of last season.

Overview

  • Ravanelli's name still appears on Olympique de Marseille's official organizational chart, yet he has been inactive since the 2024–25 season ended.
  • A recent sighting in the presidential stand at the Vélodrome was tolerated but highlighted a diminished status.
  • La Provence links his sidelining to internal leadership tensions, reporting that Medhi Benatia envisioned the club's future without him.
  • He was repatriated in spring 2024 by president Pablo Longoria as a sporting and institutional adviser.
  • The report notes he remains popular with supporters but presents him as close to departing the club.
