The case concerns suspected embezzlement in Marseille around transfers fees, agent commissions and contracts during 2009-2012. 64M€ would have been embezzled, members of organized crime in Marseille gravitating around the club. Deschamps said that he never knew the wages, fees and commmissions because it was not his role. But a flipchart handwritten by him show that he was talking about the fees and the wages.

Google translate of the article : In its edition of Sunday, the JDD evokes the case of suspicious transfers of OM and of player agents commissions. It is revealed that during his hearing before the police as a witness, Didier Deschamps was well defended: "The financial aspect and wages have never interested me more than that. I do not fit into these discussions, it is not my responsibility. (...) I've never been interested in the part of agents. "But the current coach of the Blues, Marseille coach from 2009 to 2012, is contradicted by the former CEO of OM, Antoine Veyrat, who notably transmitted to justice Deschamps a flipchart where it indicates the salaries of players and amount of estimated transfers.

Asked by the JDD, Deschamps has defended calmly, "I do not remember that, but it is my handwriting. I think it was a technical meeting with Pape Diouf and Julien Fournier, in anticipation of the coming season, with players likely to leave and arrive. But I can not let that I knew the amounts of wages and transfers! (...) I say that I never took care of a transfer negotiations or the amount of a player's salary! "the Cotelle judge must now determine how the coach of the Blues was aware of transfers and wages of Marseille players.
