Supported by the managers and his players, the Italian wants to refocus the team on sporting performance.

De Zerbi has the confidence of its leaders
Marseille leaders, starting with Mehdi Benatia, expressed their full confidence in De Zerbi. The Moroccan leader praised his dedication and his passionate approach, recalling that his arrival at OM was the result of a thoughtful choice aligned with the club's vision. This mutual trust reinforces the stability of the project despite the recent turbulence. According to information from La Provence, the club's management was not worried by the coach's media outing.
After a break in Brescia, Roberto De Zerbi returned to Marseille to supervise an intense training session at the Commanderie, exceptionally open to seven supporters. Although he left the management of training to his assistants, the coach carefully observed his players, symbolizing a return to collective work and a desire for introspection after the defeats against PSG and Auxerre. With the support of his leaders and a renewed focus on the field, Roberto De Zerbi is determined to raise the bar and continue the progress of Olympique de Marseille.
