Olympique de Marseille officially announced on Tuesday that their collaboration with manager Habib Beye had come to an end.
Appointed in February to succeed Roberto De Zerbi, the Senegalese manager failed to meet the targets set for him by the club’s board, namely to qualify the team for the 2026-27 Champions League and to win the Coupe de France.
Knocked out at the quarter-final stage of the competition by Toulouse FC (2-2, 3-4 a.e.t.), the Olympians finished their Ligue 1 season in fifth place in the table, securing qualification for the Europa League. In total, Beye won just six of the 14 matches he managed from the OM dugout, suffering six defeats and two draws.
“Olympique de Marseille announces that it is ending its collaboration with Habib Beye. The club thanks Habib Beye and wishes him all the best for the rest of his career,” the club said in a statement.
His announced successor, Bruno Genesio, the former Lille OSC manager, is expected to be officially confirmed by the French club shortly.
