Mercato OM: Tudor to be finalised today?

Having met his president and agent this week, will Igor Tudor be leaving OM at the end of the season? The answer could be known this Thursday, as the Croatian coach is expected to speak at a press conference today.

Igor Tudor will appear at a press conference this Thursday, starting at 2pm, two days before OM travel to Ajaccio. It's a game for naught, as Marseille are guaranteed third place in Ligue 1, while Ajaccio have already been relegated to Ligue 2.

But today's press conference could be the perfect opportunity for Igor Tudor to (finally) reveal his decision regarding his future, given that OM now have nothing left to play for. According to L'Equipe and La Provence, Igor Tudor had dinner with his president Pablo Longoria on Tuesday, and the Croatian's agent, who has just arrived in Marseille, then spoke at length with the Spanish manager yesterday.

Have the two parties decided to part ways at the end of the season, a year before the end of the Croatian's contract? That's the big question, especially as Tudor's name continues to be linked with Juventus for the post-Allegri era, as reported in today's edition of Tuttosport for example. After dodging questions about his future in recent weeks, Tudor has the opportunity to put an end to the suspense this Thursday.
