Roberto De Zerbi remains head coach of Marseille

After the 0–3 defeat to Brugge in the UEFA Champions League, more and more rumours began to circulate about a possible dismissal of Marseille’s head coach. However, he himself has denied them.

Details: At a press conference ahead of the next match, Roberto De Zerbi stated that he has no intention of leaving the team and will remain in charge.

Quote: "What you read or hear is just talk. I am still here, you can say that it’s true. The players support me. I have the strength to stay here for five or six years," De Zerbi said.

Earlier, there was information that Roberto De Zerbi had personally asked Marseille’s management to accept his resignation. This happened after the 0–3 defeat to Brugge. Negotiations inside the club are still ongoing.

Reminder: The main catalyst for these considerations was Marseille’s elimination from the Champions League after the 3:0 defeat to Brugge, while Benfica beat Real 4:2 to snatch the last available spot in the next round of the group stage.
