Olympique de Marseille still has four league matches to play this season. The first of them is scheduled for this Sunday evening at the Vélodrome stadium, with the reception of OGC Nice (8:45 p.m., 31st day of Ligue 1). For this meeting, Habib Beye will not be able to count on several of his players, currently in the infirmary. OM took stock of the subject.
This Saturday, the southern club published a press release to list the state of health of the players unfit to play the next match against the Aiglons. No real surprise since these are almost exclusively long-term injured people. For example, there are Bilal Nadir and Amine Gouiri who have just started their rehabilitation after similar injuries to their right hamstrings.
For his part, Igor Paixao has also started his rehabilitation. The Brazilian is recovering from a right calf injury. CJ Egan-Riley and Nayef Aguerd are continuing their rehabilitation while Geoffrey Kondogbia is also continuing his. And the press release concludes as follows: “The club continues to support the players on a daily basis in their recovery process, in close collaboration with the medical and performance staff. »
OM continues its sprint towards the Champions League
In the meantime, OM are in the middle of a final sprint to try to achieve their objective stated at the start of the season: to qualify for the next Champions League. A mission much more complicated than expected, with no less than three defeats conceded in the last four outings in Ligue 1, including a last one which was bad against Lorient (2-0).
Once the match against Nice has been played, the Phocéens will travel to Nantes and Le Havre before hosting Stade Rennais on the final day of the season.
