This is a unanimous observation. Arriving last summer from Ajax Amsterdam for the modest sum of 4 million euros, Geronimo Gulli has become a strong man in theMarseille Olympic in just a few months. While some of his teammates praise his performance, outside observers are also won over.
This is the case of Jérôme Alonzo. The former goalkeeper, a specialist in the position, made very complimentary remarks about the Argentinian international goalkeeper.
“He has a real presence, an aura”
“ I like pretty much everything about him and his start to the season. He is fair, as a guardian and as a leader. I admire the fact that it doesn’t overplay the South American coast, while one could say that it is OM-compatible. He has a real presence, an aura. That, you have it or you don’t, and that’s what Pau Lopez never had“, enthused Alonzo on La Chaîne L’Equipe.
“ Quiet strength is not given to everyone, especially to OM. It’s not Steve Mandanda who wants. Rulli took on the costume with a speed that amazed me, and he also succeeds in matches where he has few saves to make. With him, Marseille has a big advantage because I only see Lille Lucas Chevalier in front of him“, concluded the ex-doorman.
