Olympique de Marseille prepares for 2026-27 season under Bruno Genesio

Olympique de Marseille is preparing for the 2026-2027 season under new head coach Bruno Genesio. Despite a challenging financial context and the need to manage player transfers to meet DNCG requirements, Genesio is working to establish a clear tactical philosophy and instill character within the squad.

Midfielder Quinten Timber has praised Genesio's leadership, noting that the coach is "very clear on what he wants" regarding playing style and locker room management. Timber added that Genesio provides players with freedom within a defined structure.

In related personnel developments, former midfielder Clément Grenier, who was considered for a technical role at the club, is set to begin a media career with RMC this coming September. He will join a group of consultants including Christophe Dugarry and Mathieu Valbuena.
