Roberto de Zerbi is on the verge of becoming the new head coach of Olympique Marseille, with a three-year contract agreement nearly finalized. The Italian manager’s move from Brighton & Hove Albion to the French club is pending a final agreement on a €6 million exit fee. This fee is a significant reduction from the original €15 million clause set before his departure from Brighton.
Contract Details and Negotiations
Olympique Marseille is expected to finalize the deal soon, securing De Zerbi’s services after successful negotiations that have seen the exit clause lowered to facilitate the transfer. This strategic move by Marseille aims to bring in De Zerbi’s expertise and leadership to the club, enhancing their competitive edge in upcoming seasons.
