During a press conference held ahead of Sunday's match against Paris FC, Olympique de Marseille coach Bruno Genesio commented on his team's objectives for the current season. Genesio stated that it would be 'irresponsible' to talk about Champions League ambitions for OM at this stage.

Genesio emphasized that, following the closure of the summer transfer window, it is essential to maintain a realistic perspective on what the club can achieve this season. He added that discussing the Champions League would be a lie to OM's supporters.

The coach indicated that he preferred his players and the club to focus on the upcoming matches rather than engage in talk about overly ambitious goals.

Regarding Paris FC, Genesio described them as 'a new good team in Ligue 1', highlighting the need for his team to approach this match with seriousness and determination.

Genesio's message aims to temper expectations and encourage a more measured discourse within the club, as the season is still young.
