PARIS, June 27 — France international Dimitri Payet has extended his contract with Olympique de Marseille by two years until 2024 and accepted a 50 per cent pay cut for next season, the club said today. “To love the club is good, to prove it is better,” the forward, who had previously refused a pay cut amid the Covid-19 crisis, told a joint news conference with coach Andre Villas Boas and president Jacques-Henri Eyraud.“I went to see the president to make this proposal,” added Payet.Marseille are under financial pressure, having been fined €3 million this month for breaching a settlement agreement relating to financial fair play rules.
European soccer’s governing body Uefa said it would permanently withhold “15 per cent of the revenue that the club would be entitled to receive from any participation in Uefa club competitions” for the next two seasons. Eyraud, however, said that “OM is not for sale” amid speculation that former rugby club RC Toulon’s owner Mourad Boudjellal may make an offer for the side on behalf of an unnamed businessman. — Reuters
