Olympique de Marseille announced on Tuesday the end of its collaboration with Habib Beye, just four months after his appointment. The 48-year-old coach had been named to replace Roberto De Zerbi in the heart of winter.

What happened?

Habib Beye struggled to impose his mark during his tenure. Under his direction, the Olympians finished fifth in Ligue 1, missing their objective of qualifying for the next edition of the C1.

Why is this important for Olympique de Marseille?

The Phocaeans' management is expected to appoint Bruno Genesio in his place in the coming days. The name of the French technician has been consistently mentioned on the Canebière for several weeks.

What comes next?

The resumption of training is scheduled for July 6th. Here is the current ranking of Olympique de Marseille: | Category | Value | | --- | --- | | Ligue 1 ranking | 5th | | Points | 59 | | Record | 18W-5D-11L | | Recent form | WWLDL | | Goals scored | 63 | | Goals conceded | 45 | | Goal difference | +18 | | Gap with the leader | 17 points | And Olympique de Marseille will have to turn to the appointment of its new coach. So the end of the collaboration with Habib Beye is an important step for the club. But Olympique de Marseille must now focus on the next season.
