While Olympique de Marseille is looking for a new coach, Daniel Riolo is campaigning in favor of Habib Beye, who does not hide his desire to sit on the Marseille bench.
If vacation time has come for the Marseille players, it is quite different for Pablo Longoria. The next few weeks promise to be particularly busy for the president of Olympique de Marseille. And while waiting to throw himself headlong into a transfer window which promises to be eventful, the Spanish leader must settle the file of the new coach.
The departure of Jean-Louis Gasset, called to the rescue last winter, has been noted for several weeks and Pablo Longoria is working to find a successor. And after the failures of Marcelino and Gennaro Gattuso, the OM boss no longer has the right to make mistakes. Despite the club’s situation and the absence of European Cups, he would still like to attract a big name, which constitutes a mistake in the eyes of Daniel Riolo.
Pablo Longoria thinks too big
“Longoria and Benatia are in the process of picking each other’s brains and things are heated because of this subject because they do not find it and believe that the file is complicated”, he explained to RMC on Monday, adding: “There is a limit in their reasoning, it is that they want to mark the occasion and send a message on the name of the coach. Which I can understand in relation to the failures of this year. But I do not agree. »
“In wanting to mark the occasion too much, they embark on complicated paths. Fonseca, who was their priority, to hear that if he comes, it’s because he hasn’t found anything else, I don’t think it’s positive. There aren’t many famous coaches who want to come to Marseille.”he continued before campaigning for Habib Beye.
“Tomorrow, if you tell me, we’ll try Habib Beye, I won’t fall off my chair. Why not ? He knows the environment, he explained, insisting: “Go all out on a guy who wants to come and who dreams of coming. Give it a try. I don’t see why he wouldn’t be suitable. I don’t see any major contraindication to trying the Habib Beye experience at OM. I don’t see the argument from the guy who says: ‘it’s such big bullshit’. There are too many examples in Europe of young coaches getting started.”
