Marseille head coach Roberto De Zerbi criticized his players after the home match of the 11th round of Ligue 1 against Auxerre (1:3).
According to L’Équipe, after the match De Zerbi told the players in the locker room: “You have humiliated me, you have humiliated our club in front of our fans.”
It was also noted that the Italian took out a projector and showed the team a contract offer from Manchester United with financial details blurred, but so that the club's logo was visible.
“Here is where I could have been, but I put my passion above money. I came to Marseille for passion,” said De Zerbi afterwards.
