Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Italy World Cup winner Gennaro Gattuso has been named the new head coach of Olympique de Marseille, signing a three-year contract with the option of an additional year.<\/b><\/p>\n

Gattuso\u2019s appointment follows the departure of Marcelino, and he is set to lead the team for the first time in their upcoming match against Monaco.<\/p>\n

Jacques Abardonado served as the caretaker coach during the transition, overseeing a 3-3 Europa League draw against Ajax but later experiencing a challenging 4-0 defeat to Paris Saint Germain.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very happy and proud to join Olympique de Marseille. It\u2019s a club and a stadium, the Orange Velodrome, where I had the opportunity to play as a player, celebrated throughout Europe for the passion and fervour it exudes,\u201d Gattuso told the club\u2019s website.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to getting to work with my new team and taking on the upcoming challenges that await us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gattuso\u2019s return to management comes after a seven-month stint with Valencia, where he was dismissed in January. His coaching career began as a player-coach at Swiss side Sion and later included spells at Palermo, Milan, and Napoli.<\/p>\n

He secured one major trophy during his coaching career, guiding Napoli to victory in the Coppa Italia during the 2019-20 season.<\/p>\n
