The arrival of a renowned coach should allow Olympique de Marseille to enter a new era. A wave of optimism reigns in the Marseille city.
After a season marked by a disappointing place in the soft underbelly of the ranking, theOlympic Marseille has every intention of restoring its image. Without a European Cup and therefore with a lighter schedule compared to its competitors, the Marseille club will have a card to play next season. Pablo Longoria knows he is expected to turn the corner after the last transfer window periods.
In this context, the summer will be very lively in Marseille. And before retouching the squad in all lines, the priority file concerns the coach. And this soap opera should settle down in the coming days.
OM has chosen its strong man
As indicated by the newspaper L’Équipe, Olympique de Marseille has established Sergio Conceiçao as its new priority. A coach with a strong temperament, the Portuguese technician ticks a lot of good boxes, starting with his in-depth knowledge of Ligue 1 after his time at Nantes a few seasons ago.
If Conceiçao saw his name linked to AC Milan, the idea of taking up the challenge of Olympique de Marseille could seduce him, at a time when the Lombard club would set its sights on another Portuguese technician, Paulo Fonseca, also announced at OM. One thing is certain: after Jorge Sampaoli and Igor Tudor, OM would finally have a strong man to embody its project and regain its place in the hierarchy of French football.
