Main Body
The change in leadership happened after Habib Beye's short time in charge, which began in February following Roberto De Zerbi's departure. The club emphasized that Beye was removed because he failed to meet specific goals, such as qualifying for the UEFA Champions League and reaching the semi-finals of the Coupe de France.
在 Habib Beye 短暫執政後，領導層發生了變動。Beye 是在二月 Roberto De Zerbi 離開後接手的。球會強調，Beye 被解雇是因為他未能達成特定目標，例如晉級歐冠聯（UEFA Champions League）以及打入法國盃準決賽。
Mr. Genesio takes over after his two-year contract with Lille OSC ended. Although he helped Lille return to the Champions League by finishing third in Ligue 1, reports suggest that his relationship with club president Olivier Létang had become difficult. Consequently, the coach had previously indicated that he would not be extending his contract.
Genesio 是在與里爾（Lille OSC）的兩年合約結束後接手的。雖然他幫助里爾在法甲獲得第三名並重返歐冠聯，但報導指出他與球會會長 Olivier Létang 的關係變得緊張。因此，這位教練此前已表示不會續約。
Regarding his career, Genesio has a great deal of experience in French football. He previously managed Olympique Lyonnais, where he qualified for the Champions League twice, and Stade Rennais, where he was named Ligue 1 Manager of the Year in 2022. He also spent time managing Beijing Guoan in China. While the club has not officially confirmed the length of his new contract, several reports suggest he will stay until 2028.
關於他的職業生涯，Genesio 在法國足球界擁有豐富經驗。他此前執教過里昂（Olympique Lyonnais），期間兩次晉級歐冠聯；也執教過雷恩（Stade Rennais），並在 2022 年被評為法甲年度最佳教練。他還曾在中國執教北京國安。雖然球會尚未正式確認新合約的長度，但多份報導指出他將留任至 2028 年。
Conclusion
Bruno Genesio has now officially started his new role at Olympique de Marseille, replacing Habib Beye.
Bruno Genesio 現在已正式在馬賽隊就職，取代了 Habib Beye。
