Overview

• L’Équipe and Foot Mercato report that Mbemba filed a complaint months ago accusing OM of moral harassment tied to his exclusion and pressure to accept a transfer with an imposed foreign intermediary.
• During the dispute, the defender went a full year without playing, was suspended in September 2024, and saw a salary withholding later overturned by the Ligue’s legal mission after an altercation involving Ali Zarrak was reported.
• Asked by reporters, OM neither confirmed nor denied the allegations and stated it would not comment.
• Now a free-agent signing at Lille, Mbemba told his unveiling he had suffered and referred legal questions to his lawyer.
• LOSC president Olivier Létang said he attempted to recruit Mbemba a year earlier but OM refused, with the player finally joining this summer and logging 45 minutes against Toulouse last weekend.
