Olympique de Marseille is thriving under Roberto De Zerbi, but uncertainty looms over his future.
As OM prepares to face PSG, the team sits in second place in Ligue 1, looking well-positioned for a return to the Champions League next season. However, according to Calcio Mercato, De Zerbi’s time in Marseille could be cut short. AC Milan has reportedly made him their top target for the summer transfer window, hoping he can revive the club after a disappointing season in Serie A and the Champions League.
Marseille, on the other hand, is keen to keep him, with Pablo Longoria and Mehdi Benatia praising his work and dedication. Meanwhile, Sergio Conceiçao’s tenure at Milan appears uncertain, and a summer shake-up could see key players like Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez leave as well.
Although De Zerbi has expressed his commitment to a three-year project, his fiery temperament raises doubts. His threat to resign after a loss to Auxerre earlier this season serves as a reminder that anything is possible. Additionally, internal turmoil at OM could further push the Italian coach towards the exit.
