The French club Olympique Marseille officially announced the appointment of Senegalese coach Habib Beye as the head coach of the first team.

The club wrote on its official account: "Welcome back to your home, Habib," referring to Bai's return to the southern club where he previously played as a player.

The club gave Bai, who left Stade Rennais a few days ago, significant confidence to continue the team's journey following the departure of Italian Roberto De Zerbi due to poor results in recent times.

The appointment of Bay comes amid significant challenges for the French team, as he will work on restoring tactical and moral discipline and enhancing Marseille's prospects after a period filled with fluctuations and pressures in terms of results and the locker room atmosphere.
