Olympique Marseille wants to hit hard next season. While at least three coaches have taken charge of the Olympic team this season, this time the management wants to build a strong project with an established coach. According to information published by the French newspaper L'EquipeThree coaches will be on the club's shortlist. Among them are Frank Hayes (RC Lens) and Sérgio Conceição (FC Porto), but especially Paulo Fonseca (LOSC) who will have absolute priority.
The Portuguese coach, who coaches northern France, enjoys great appreciation from Pablo Longoria and Mehdi Benatia, who would have placed him among the coach's priorities, succeeding current coach Jean-Louis Gasset. Last year, Marseille actually came close to signing Paulo Fonseca, who was eventually selected by Lille president Olivier Letang. Under contract until June 2024, the latter this time will have plenty of time to sign.
