Roberto De Zerbi soon to head Marseille’s Olympique
Talented Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi, aged 45, is about to succeed Jean-Louis Gasset as the head of the Olympique de Marseille team. This information was confirmed by the sports management of Radio France, after being revealed by media outlets such as L’Equipe and Foot Mercato.
An agreement has been reached with the English club Brighton to settle compensation covering Roberto De Zerbi’s last two years of contract. At the same time, Olympique de Marseille has already reached a contractual agreement with the Italian coach for a duration of three seasons. His official arrival is expected at the beginning of next week.
An unexpected candidacy
Initially, the Brighton coach was not considered a feasible option for the Olympian club. In fact, his candidacy was deemed “unattainable,” according to a source close to the matter. However, Roberto De Zerbi expressed his desire to work with Olympique de Marseille. At 45 years old, this talented technician was tied to the English club until 2026.
