Continuing with Marseille for Years and Players Stand by My Side

Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi confirmed his continuation in leading Olympique Marseille, sending a decisive message regarding his future with the French team, and emphasizing his confidence in his ability to continue the project for many years despite the recent pressures surrounding the club.

De Zerbi stated: “I will stay at Olympique Marseille, I am strong enough to remain for at least another 5-6 years at the club,” clearly indicating his commitment to his role and his desire to build a competitive team and restore balance.

The Italian coach was keen to emphasize the cohesion of the locker room, explaining that the players support him at this stage, saying: “The players are with me.” This message reflects the team’s unity and the group’s belief in the work of the coaching staff despite the criticism.

De Zerbi’s statements came after Marseille’s 0-3 loss to Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League, a match that eliminated the team from the competition and sparked a wave of controversy about his future. However, the Italian coach stepped forward to clarify the situation, affirming his continuation and considering that the real response should be on the field by improving performance in upcoming matches.
