Appointed as OM's head coach on Wednesday night, Habib Beye led his first training session this Thursday. The Senegalese tactician addressed the Marseille players.

Habib Beye conducted his first training session this Thursday. It took place in front of the media. The Senegalese coach agreed to reflect on his initial interactions with the squad.

"This morning, there were lots of smiles. The connection with the players was excellent. We talked, I shared my ambitions with them. They are the driving force. Being out on the pitch always brings us back to that sense of enjoyment, which must be ever-present every day. I won't reveal everything, but there's one element that's fundamental for me in what we're about to experience: the notion of enjoyment. If today, we don't take pleasure in being at OM, in playing at the Vélodrome, in representing OM every second, then unfortunately, something will be missing for us," he said.

Beye's first match in charge of Marseille will be on Friday in Ligue 1 away to Brest.
