Marseille manager Rudi Garcia has confirmed that he will be staying on at the club next season, despite reports suggesting that his contract was due to expire at the end of this month.

Garcia, who took over as manager of Marseille in September 2018, has been instrumental in turning the team's fortunes around during his time in charge. He has overseen some impressive performances from the team, including their run to the quarter-finals of the Europa League last season.

In an interview with the club's official website, Garcia said: "I'm very happy to have signed a new contract with Marseille. I want to stay here and continue working hard to help the team achieve our goals."

He added: "We had a good start to the season, but we've also had our ups and downs. But I'm confident that we can challenge for the Ligue 1 title next season."

The manager also praised his players for their efforts so far this season, saying: "They've worked really hard and they deserve all the credit for what we're achieving."

Despite the success of the team under Garcia's management, there were concerns about the future of the club following a disappointing season last year. However, the manager is determined to build on the progress made during his tenure and lead the team towards further success.

Overall, it seems likely that Garcia will remain at Marseille next season, and fans can look forward to seeing what the team can achieve under his leadership.
