The future of Roberto de Zerbi at Olympique de Marseille fuels the debates this week.

By engaging the services of Roberto de Zerbi last summer, theOlympique de Marseille put the small dishes in the big ones. Considered one of the most promising coaches of its generation on a European football level, the Italian technician has set up an ambitious project.

And Zerbi's method begins to bear fruit since OM points to second place in the Ligue 1 ranking behind Paris Saint-Germain. A course that should allow the Marseille club to find the prestigious Champions League next season. However, the future of Roberto de Zerbi in Marseille is not yet sealed…

Milan rushes to Zerbi

According to information from Calciomercato, AC Milan has made Roberto de Zerbi its priority for the next summer transfer window. After having already changed coach this season by replacing Paulo Fonseca (who left OL) by Sergio Conceiçao, the Lombard club would still not be satisfied by the team's current performance. Lack of the first places in Serie A and eliminated without glory from the Champions League, AC Milan wants to restore its coat of arms. And Zerbi is perceived as the appropriate man to achieve this.

Olympique de Marseille obviously does not understand this ear. Pablo Longoria and Mehdi Benatia praise the work and investment of a technician who seems to be unanimous in the club. For his part, from Zerbi repeated his desire to register in a medium -term project, over a period of three years. But the volcanic character of the Italian does not exclude any scenario. No one has forgotten the episode of Auxerre, where Zerbi had threatened to tear his contract and return the apron after the defeat at the Vélodrome against AJA (1-3). Passionate and passionate, Roberto de Zerbi is a difficult personality to read.
