Ligue 1: Roberto De Zerbi Set to Become Olympique Marseille's New Head Coach
Roberto De Zerbi and Olympique Marseille are close to finalizing a three-year contract, with only a €6m exit fee with Brighton remaining to be settled, making him the strongest candidate for the head coach position.
Olympique Marseille is on the verge of appointing Roberto De Zerbi as their new head coach, with negotiations advancing positively. The Italian manager is expected to sign a three-year contract with the French club, subject to a €6m exit fee agreement with Brighton, his current employer.
De Zerbi's move to Marseille has been a long time coming, with the club's management having identified him as their top choice for the position. The 43-year-old has a reputation for his attacking style of football and ability to develop young players, making him an attractive option for Marseille.
The only hurdle remaining is the exit fee, which has been reduced from €15m to €6m following De Zerbi's departure from Marseille in 2021. Brighton is expected to receive this amount as compensation for releasing De Zerbi from his contract.
Once the deal is finalized, De Zerbi will take the reins at Marseille, tasked with restoring the club's fortunes and challenging for domestic and European honors. With his experience and tactical acumen, he is well-equipped to succeed in this role and excite the Marseille faithful.
