Lille coach Paulo Fonseca has “a very popular profile” by Olympique de Marseille to replace Jean-Louis Gasset on the Marseille bench at the end of the season, learned, Monday May 13, the sports management of Radio France from a source close to the matter, confirming information from RMC and L’Equipe .
The Lille coach, 51, whose contract with Losc ends at the end of the season, is part of a list of coaches surveyed by OM, specifies this source, who however adds “that the Portuguese technician will only decide at the end of the season”, and that at the same time, “other coaches are also being surveyed.”
The name of another Portuguese coach, Sergio Conceição, was notably mentioned by the foreign press, but another source confirms that the current coach of FC Porto is not interested and that he “aims for a club capable of doing well in the Champions League.” OM, 8th in Ligue 1, is, for the moment, not yet guaranteed to play in a European competition next season, while it still has two matches to play against Reims and against Le Havre.
