OM, the Gattuso surprise

Rejected in Lyon, Gennaro Gattuso is a few steps from Marseille. His signing for OM could happen quickly.

OM are preparing to have a third coach in the 2023-2024 season which has just started. Symbol of the deep crisis experienced by the Marseille institution, Gennaro Gattuso should replace Jacques Abardonado, himself successor to the Spaniard Marcelino appointed in July.

Foot MercatoThen The Team And RMC Sport, assure that Gennaro Gattuso is one step away from committing to a season with OM. The 45-year-old Italian should arrive this Wednesday in the Marseille city to finalize, it is assumed, the discussions already advanced with Pablo Longoria.

The president of OM, mistreated and threatened by some of the Olympian supporters, notably Rachid Zeroual, figure of the South Winners, would have made the former AC Milan and Nazionale midfielder his priority.

Gennaro Gattuso, free since his sidelined by Valencia FC on January 30, should lead OM on Saturday evening in Monaco (7th day of Ligue 1).
