After the failure of Marcelo Gallardo, OM must work hard to find another coach. Marcelino is on pole but the Christophe Galtier option remains on the table. Mohamed Bouhafsi confirms the chances of the starting coach of PSG.
A native of Marseille, trained at OM, no doubt in love with the club deep down. Christophe Galtier ticks all the boxes to be the darling of Marseille supporters. Nevertheless, the last 12 months have almost made him a pariah on the Canebière. After OGC Nice, Galtier went to train the Parisian enemy for a season. A career choice that tarnished his image in Marseille as well as the accusations of his supposed racism emanating from Nice. A table that cools the supporters but not the management of OM. Alongside Marcelino, the new favorite, Christophe Galtier has a place of choice in Pablo Longoria’s short list to be the new coach of OM.
Gallardo dismissed, Galtier’s rating goes up
L’Equipe revealed this information even if the sports daily also publishes pessimistic comments from internal sources at the club, which consider the arrival of Galtier unlikely. A big follower of OM, journalist Mohamed Bouhafsi went in the direction of information from L’Equipe on the interest of the Marseille club for Galtier. For him, at present, the idea of seeing Christophe Galtier settle on the OM bench is more realistic than ever.

To the question of a user ” Is it true that Galtier is back in the race? “, he replied simply” Yes on his Twitter account. It must be said that Pablo Longoria has been a fan of the Parisian coach for some time, already wanting to recruit him last summer in Nice. Finally, Galtier went to PSG and OM took Igor Tudor. But, with his CV as a double French champion and his grip, he would not necessarily be a bad option for the Marseille club. Galtier’s fate now depends on the progress of discussions between Marcelino and OM. Close to Longoria, the Spanish coach has a head start on his French counterpart.
