Florian Thauvin, currently thriving with Udinese (31 years old, 7 appearances and 4 goals in all competitions this season), continues to hold a special affection for Olympique de Marseille. While he admires the club, he does not shy away from the challenges of playing for such a passionate team.
He states, « For me, Marseille is the biggest and most beautiful club in France, but playing there is difficult because there is so much passion surrounding it, a passion you don’t see everywhere. » Thauvin emphasizes the importance of this passion: « The city lives for the team, identifies with it until it becomes one with it. And when there is so much passion and we don’t win, it becomes hard to be a player at OM, » he told *La Gazzetta dello Sport*.
These words reveal how the weight of expectations and results can impact players, especially in a club where the connection between the team and its supporters is so strong.
