Marseille officially part ways with Roberto De Zerbi | OneFootball

Yet another changing of the guard has taken place on the touchline at Orange Vélodrome, with Olympique de Marseille parting ways with Roberto De Zerbi by mutual consent.

The decision comes in the wake of the Les Phocéens suffering a huge 5-0 away defeat against rivals PSG last weekend.

"Following discussions involving all stakeholders in the club's management – ​​owner, president, director of football, and coach – it was decided to opt for a change at the helm of the first team," the official statement read. 

"This was a difficult, collective decision, reached after careful consideration and in the best interests of the club to address the sporting challenges of the final stretch of the season."

"Olympique de Marseille would like to thank Roberto De Zerbi for his investment, commitment, professionalism, and seriousness, marked in particular by the 2nd place obtained during the 2024/25 season."

De Zerbi has been linked with a return to the Premier League, with Manchester City, Manchester United, and Tottenham all rumoured potential destinations.
