Arrived at Marseille
during the last summer transfer window with the label of the club's most expensive recruit, Igor Paixão continues to make his mark in his new environment. And for this, the young Brazilian winger can count on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
The Gabonese striker made his return to OM last summer. His level on the pitch and his sunny personality are unanimously appreciated by his teammates.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, successful return to OM.
In an interview with RMC, Paixão did not beat around the bush. For the Brazilian, but also for other players in the Marseille squad, “Aubame” takes on the role of idol.
“A source of inspiration”
“ This is an example for all of us. He has played in the biggest clubs in the world, he has won titles, he knows everything about the high level. It's a source of inspiration. At 36, he still has this energy, this desire. Playing alongside him is incredible,” Paixao enthused.
“He’s an idol, and not just for me, for young people too. He is a humble, hard-working person who scores goals. So I'm very happy to be able to play with him » concluded the OM winger.
