The 2006 World Champion, Italian Gennaro Gattuso, took over as the new head coach of Olympique Marseille on September 27, 2023. Selected by President Pablo Longoria to succeed the resigning Spaniard Marcelino, the Italian tactician was tasked with revitalizing OM after a deep crisis that followed an explosive meeting between club officials and fan groups. However, his tenure at the club was brief, as he departed from the Marseille bench in February 2024.
