Olympique de Marseille would be in the process of inducting a new coach into its technical helm.
The quest for a new coach of Olympique de Marseille, which was said to be complicated, would be about to end. The replacement for Jean-Louis Gasset should be known in the coming days.
According to Insider Mohamed Toubache-Ter, “OM is close to the goal” in this matter. The identity of the technician called to disembark at the Commanderie is, however, not yet known.
Sergio Conceiçao expected at OM
According to the latest news, it is Sergio Conceiçao who would be best placed to take over the reigns of the prestigious French club. The Portuguese had touches with Chelsea and AC Milan, but a meeting with Pablo Longoria midway through last week would have changed everything.
Conceiçao is currently under contract with FC Porto. He extended his lease just a few weeks ago. However, his situation within this club is complicated because the hierarchy has changed with the appointment of a new president, in the person of André Villas-Boas. And the success in the Cup final, Sunday evening against Sporting (2-1 ap), should not change anything.
If Conceiçao is not named, OM should reactivate other tracks. The names of Fonseca and Belmadi have also been circulating around the Vélodrome, but it is unlikely that these two coaches will sign for Marseille.
