Marseille coach Eric Gerets insists he will leave the club at the end of the season.

Gerets has helped move Marseille to the top of Ligue 1, but has had a poor relationship with club owner Robert Louis-Dreyfus.

The club owner wanted to wait until the summer to offer Gerets a new deal.

“Despite my work, there was a lack of gratitude and most of all a lack of trust,” Gerets.

“If I had been offered a new two-year contract with the same wage or a little bit more before the end of March, I would have signed immediately.

“He (Louis-Dreyfus) would have sent a strong message if he had told me as soon as January he wanted me to stay, while we were fourth in the league.”
