Marcelo Bielsa has no plans to leave Marseille to become the next manager of Mexico.

"I haven't spoken with anyone in the Mexico federation and that is sufficient to consider hypothetical and I never talk about hypothetical situations," Bielsa said at a news conference on Thursday as the club prepares for the season opener against Caen on Aug. 8.

Bielsa added he is close to renewing his existing contract with Marseille.
