Coach Gattuso only achieved 9 wins in 24 official matches for Marseille,

including 5 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses in 16 Ligue 1 games.

Marseille, who failed to win in the last 6 league games with 4 draws and 2 losses,

is in 9th place (30 points).

Marseille drew 2-2 with Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine) in the first leg of the 2023-2024 UEFA Europa League round of 16 playoffs held on the 16th.

Ahead of the second round of the playoffs on the 22nd, Marseille,

who drew a sword against coach Gattuso, appointed coach Jean-Louis Gase (71, France) as the successor.

Coach Gase, who coached Paris Saint-Germain and then coached Montpellier and Bordeaux (now France),

took charge of the Ivory Coast national team in 2022 and participated in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations,

which opened last month, but lost to Nigeria (0-1 loss) in the group stage.

He suffered a shocking second straight loss to Equatorial Guinea (0-4 loss) and was immediately dismissed during the tournament.
