Claudio Ranieri to take Marseille post this summer?

Claudio Ranieri is reportedly being lined up as a possible option to replace Marcelo Bielsa as Marseille coach.

Claudio Ranieri is reportedly among the favourites to become Marseille manager if Marcelo Bielsa leaves the club at the end of the season.

Ranieri has been without a job since being sacked as Greece coach last November following their poor start to Euro 2016 qualifying.

However, L'Equipe claims that the former Chelsea boss is being considered as a possible alternative to Bielsa should the Chilean depart the Stade Velodrome.

Bielsa is only contracted with OM until the end of the season and reports in France earlier this week suggested that he would be leaving Ligue 1 for a managerial role in Saudi Arabia.

Marseille are currently fourth in the table, five points behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain.
