Olympique de Marseille are in advanced talks with Senegalese coach Habib Beye, who has emerged as the club’s number one candidate to take over the managerial role.
According to sources close to the negotiations, discussions between Marseille and Beye are progressing well, and an agreement in principle has already been reached between both parties. While the club has taken time to explore other options, confidence is growing that Beye will be the man to lead OM’s next chapter.
Everything could accelerate in the coming days, even though Marseille’s management remains cautious and thorough in assessing their choices. However, insiders indicate that Beye is now firmly at the top of the shortlist.
The final step before the deal is completed is Beye’s official departure from Stade Rennais, where he is currently under contract. Once that process is finalized, he is expected to sign his contract with Marseille.
If confirmed, the appointment would mark a major step in Beye’s coaching career and signal Marseille’s ambition to build a competitive and dynamic team under his leadership. Fans will now be eagerly waiting for official confirmation as the club moves closer to sealing the deal.
