Marseille's Chief Benatia reveals the reasons behind De Zerbi pursuit

De Zerbi has made a fantastic impression in his debut season with OM, quickly establishing himself as a key figure in the team's success.

Benatia told BeIN Sports: "We saw that he was in the process of resigning, I called him out on his nerve. He listened to me, I told him that he had to give the team an identity again.

"He is passionate, he needs real people around him.

"My dream is to have 3 or 4 players trained at OM and a competitive team in Europe. We play with important young people for the team like Ismaël Koné or Mason Greenwood."
