OM got back to work today at the Robert Louis-Dreyfus training ground, in preparation for the 2010-2011 season.
Just before 10h00 the first players of the Olympique de Marseille squad arrived at the training ground. Arriving as a group and then followed by the stragglers, the OM players were reunited with great pleasure. Everyone seemed to be wearing a big smile. On the menu for this first morning back: a training gear hand out and medical tests. The serious stuff will start this afternoon with the first session on the pitches at the RLD training ground.
The first recruit of the season, Cesar Azpilicueta was present. Welcomed by Didier Deschamps, he then went off to pick up his gear and meet his new team-mates.
