Bruno Genesio nears appointment as new Marseille manager
Summary

Bruno Genesio is expected to be named the new manager of Olympique de Marseille after leaving Lille OSC. His departure from Lille was confirmed last week following reports of tension with club president Olivier Létang. Despite leading Lille back to the UEFA Champions League, Genesio's contract was not renewed. Habib Beye, who currently manages Marseille, has not met the club's objectives for UEFA qualification and the Coupe de France. While Beye's exit has yet to be confirmed, sources indicate that Genesio is the leading candidate to replace him as manager.
