The story comes via @InstantFoot, who already broke the news that Adidas would leave Olympique Marseille and claim that this one originated from an internal source (likely at the club).

Intersport, a chain of sports stores, had been Marseille's jersey sponsor since the start of the 2012-13 season, when it replaced previous partner BetClic, a betting company. It has to be said that Mutuelles du soleil, a small insurance firm appears on this season's third kit, but it's unlikely that it'll take over the entire sponsorship.

This means that Olympique Marseille's new owners are confronted with the task of not only finding a new shirt supplier for when Adidas leaves in 2018 (Puma is reportedly close to being confirmed), but also to find a new main sponsor for next season.

Who should become Olympique Marseille's new main sponsor? Drop us a line below.
