After admitting that he wants to leave Olympique de Marseille this summer, the Cevennes native has been linked with a managerial position at an Italian Serie A club
Didier Deschamps has indicated that he no longer wishes to be the coach of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-de-Marseille-c40127 which is a boon for a host of European clubs who have been keeping a close eye on his situation at the Velodrome all summer.
The French tactician is tired of the uncertainty surrounding the club. Mired by financial constraints, the former AS Monaco coach will again be without a proper transfer kitty to conduct his business this summer.
Les Phoceens will be forced to sell a few of their star players in order to cut down the burden on the payroll and Deschamps no longer feels that he can work under such circumstance.
Yesterday, the former World Cup winner revealed that he wanted to leave the club and he had already discussed this with the leaders of the club earlier this May.
“Know that, the direction of OM knows my position from May 25 leave in a meeting in Paris. I am someone who will always behave well and be respectful to the club. I know what it means to me. I took this decision because it was impossible to work under these
conditions and it would have been detrimental to the club and the players.”
Now that things are clearer, the future of the native of Cevennes no longer lies at Canebiere. However, it still remains to be seen where Didier Deschamps will kick-start his career next season.
After an unconvincing showing at the European Championships, Laurent Blanc’s future as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 manager is uncertain. Though Deschamps has been tipped for Les Bleus’ managerial position, it is still unclear if Noel Le Graet would want him at the helm.
However, reports now claim that DD is attracting a lot of interest from a few Italian Serie A sides with Sampdoria the name cited in many Italian sports newspapers this morning.
Sampdoria’s sporting director has a great relationship with the former France international and will welcome Guy Stephan, Nicolas Dehon and Antonio Pintus to his club with open arms.
