RMC Sport report this afternoon that Marcelo Bielsa is claiming €3m in compensation from Marseille, seven years after he left the club, with his lawyers ...

The Argentine’s lawyers claim that Marseille did not keep its promise of a 25% raise in the manager’s salary between the first and second season, and have pointed the finger at the club’s “dishonest strategy”. The court is set to make its decision known on January 27. Bielsa left the club right after the first match of his second season, in 2015/16, announcing his decision when the club had lost to Caen, having explained that the decision was over a dispute surrounding his contract.
