Marseille find their coach: Bruno Genesio

Change is on the agenda in the coaching seat at Marseille. In a brief statement, the club announced they have parted ways with coach Habib Beye. After Beye's departure, Bruno Genesio is expected to take charge of the team very soon.

According to reports, 59-year-old Bruno Genesio reached a two-year agreement with Marseille. The experienced manager is expected to be at the club for pre-season, which begins on July 6. However, it was stated that the official confirmation depends on the approval of the DNCG, France's financial oversight body, and the completion of the details of Habib Beye's departure. It was reported that Genesio will arrive with his own staff; his assistants Jérémie Bréchet and Dimitri Farbos, as well as goalkeeping coach Nicolas Dehon, will also work with him.

Bruno Genesio, whose contract with Lille ended, agreed to take this role despite Marseille not qualifying for the Champions League. The club's new management structure has taken shape under president Stéphane Richard and sporting director Grégory Lorenzi. With Genesio's arrival, Marseille's summer transfer planning is also expected to accelerate.

The arrival of Bruno Genesio, known for attacking football, is regarded as the start of a new era on the club's side. What kind of squad and style Marseille will prepare for next season with is eagerly awaited. While the official announcement is expected to come after the DNCG process, how the club's new structure develops will be followed closely.
