New Marseille coach Elie Baup has vowed to give his all for the club following his recent appointment.

The 57-year-old was given the job on Wednesday night after Didier Deschamps had left the Stade Velodrome by mutual consent at the start of the week.

"I'd like to thank the management of the club for the project they proposed and the confidence which they placed in me," he said. "This dynamic was what made me want to give my all for this club."

Baup's last managerial position was with Nantes before he was sacked in 2009.
