But in Marseille, we refuse to see the local icon join the Parisian opponent. At each of his appearances in his hometown, the 1998 world champion is challenged by OM supporters.
As announced by 10Sport.com exclusively, the PSG has not yet contacted any coach to replace Christophe Galtier.

And the supporters of theOM do not hesitate to recall it, affectionately, to Zidane.
