Roberto De Zerbi Bids Farewell to Marseille - Linked to Premier League Management Role
Roberto De Zerbi has officially left Olympique Marseille with mutual consent, amid speculation about taking over Tottenham Hotspur. De Zerbi joined Marseille in 2024, but had a disappointing season that almost led to his resignation earlier in the year. After a devastating 0-5 loss to Paris Saint-Germain recently, the Marseille board and De Zerbi mutually agreed to part ways after 18 months together. In a statement, the club noted: "This was a difficult but jointly considered decision. We thank him for his commitment and professionalism during his tenure." British media 'Standard' reports that the 46-year-old coach is a top candidate to become Tottenham Hotspur's new manager, replacing Thomas Frank, whose team is at risk of relegation.
