To take over from Jean-Louis Gasset next season on the OM bench, Pablo Longoria was offered the services of Thierry Henry.
Following the announcement of the dismissal of Gennaro Gattuso following a defeat at Brest (1-0), Olympique de Marseille decided to replace the Italian coach with Jean-Louis Gasset. The latter has signed up until the end of the season with the Marseille team.
Therefore, Olympian decision-makers are already working to find a coach for next season. For Charlie Davies, former American striker who became a consultant for CBS Sports, Pablo Longoria and his teams would have every interest in looking into the Thierry Henry file.
“He is a young manager who has a lot to prove”
“I know one, Thierry Henry. He coaches French hopefuls. He is a young manager who has a lot to prove, who is hungry and who has a lot of potential.”suggested Charlie Davies on the American media.
As a reminder, Thierry Henry recently took over the France Espoirs team with the aim of winning an Olympic medal next summer in Paris. So much so that an arrival at OM of the 98 world champion seems difficult to envisage this summer. And according to the latest trends, Christophe Galtier or even Paulo Fonseca, at the end of his contract with Lille, would be the avenues favored by the Marseille management.
