Pablo Longoria replaced by Alban Juster as chairman of Marseille's management

According to AFP, the former executive is said to have resigned from his position as president.

In a bid to maintain stability, OM has chosen to draw from its internal ranks. Alban Juster, who has been with the club for eight years, is leaving his role as Chief Financial & Compliance Officer to become the new Chairman of the Management Board.

However, this appointment is not permanent. The statement specifies that this is an "interim arrangement," giving the club time to complete the recruitment process for a permanent president.

To support Alban Juster in this transitional period, the Management Board will be centred around three key figures: Alessandro Antonello, who has been appointed as a board member, and Benjamin Arnaud, the club’s former general secretary (for the past seven years), who has also been named to the board.

The main goal of this restructuring is operational, the club emphasised.
