Habib Beye set to replace De Zerbi at Marseille

Habib Beye is poised to take over as head coach of Olympique de Marseille, replacing Roberto De Zerbi as the club looks to begin a new chapter.

The former defender is expected to bring fresh energy and a renewed vision to the Ligue 1 side as they prepare for the next phase of their campaign.

According to sources close to the negotiations, discussions between Marseille and Beye are progressing well, and an agreement in principle has already been reached between both parties.

While the club has taken time to explore other options, confidence is growing that Beye will be the man to lead OM’s next chapter.

Everything could accelerate in the coming days, even though Marseille’s management remains cautious and thorough in assessing their choices.

However, insiders indicate that Beye is now firmly at the top of the shortlist.

The final step before the deal is completed is Beye’s official departure from Stade Rennais, where he is currently under contract.

Once that process is finalized, he is expected to sign his contract with Marseille.

If confirmed, the appointment would mark a major step in Beye’s coaching career and signal Marseille’s ambition to build a competitive and dynamic team under his leadership.

 Fans will now be eagerly waiting for official confirmation as the club moves closer to sealing the deal.
