Brief

Reinforcing the rules, explaining situations, and promoting better behavior towards match officials — these are the main responsibilities assigned to former international referee Frank Schneider at Olympique de Marseille (OM). Over the last few weeks, and continuing until June 2025, he has taken on the role of a part-time refereeing consultant, working closely with the club's coaching staff and management, led by head coach Roberto De Zerbi. The Alsace native, present at every game at the Vélodrome Stadium, previously held a similar position with Racing Club de Strasbourg during the 2022-2023 season. With this appointment, OM aims to improve its relationship with French referees.
