Mayor of Marseille thought to oppose Greenwood’s arrival, calling it unacceptable

Benoit Payen, the mayor of Marseille, has voiced his strong opposition to the potential arrival of Mason Greenwood at Olympique Marseille, labelling it as “indecent.”

As the battle between Lazio and Marseille for Greenwood continues, French club supporters have publicly expressed their disapproval of the transfer due to the player’s past criminal records.

“The same sentiment has been echoed by the city’s mayor,” Benoit Payen said, “it’s unacceptable to bring Greenwood here considering his history.” His remarks have added weight to the growing resistance against the footballer’s recruitment.
