The Senegalese tactician would be an ideal fit for the French club.
Dismissed as Rennes coach on Monday 9 February 2026, Habib Beye could quickly bounce back in France's Ligue 1. Olympique de Marseille sees him as the favourite to take over from Roberto De Zerbi, who was sacked a few hours ago.
The former Senegalese international is appealing to Marseille, according to Foot Mercato. He is considered the best choice to breathe new life into OM. His tactical approach and disciplinary standards are assets that reinforce the French club's interest in him.
A consultant and former coach of Red Star FC, the 48-year-old Senegalese knows French football well and could meet the expectations of Olympique de Marseille's management.
