It is with an even more garnished group than theOlympique de Marseille will try to satisfy his ambitions in this second part of the season. A week after its convincing success against Lyon in Olympico (3-2), the Roberto de Zerbi team will try to confirm on the lawn of Angers this Sunday (kick-off at 8:45 p.m.).
Facing OL, striker Amine Gouiri made his debut in the Marseille jersey. In Angevin lands, two other summer reinforcements could play their first minutes with the club. Defender Amar dedic and midfielder Ismaël Bennacer offer more options to De Zerbi.
Bennacer should make his debut with OM
Will the Algerian international be tenured? De Zerbi does not forbid anything. “It is a big transfer, his qualities are compatible with our style of play. He is an absolute player, like Greenwood, Hojbjerg, Rabiot, Balerd, and he wanted to come to Marseille at all costs. We had already mentioned his name in August, but we had not managed to conclude the negotiations. We talked about it a few hours before the end of the transfer window on Monday morning, and when Medhi Benatia told me that there was the possibility of taking Bennacer, we stopped music, as they say in Italy. »»
“” I want to know the players firsthowever, he nuanced. I am very happy with this transfer window, with Luiz Felipe, Gouiri, dedic and Bennacer, we took four players who increase the level of the team. I had no doubts. Medhi Benatia has the same importance for me as Rabiot, Greenwood or Hojbjerg, he is an outstanding sports director. »» The trend would be a start of the young Nadir alongside Hojbjerg, but Bennacer should get out of the bench to make his big debut with OM.
The expected composition for OM : Rulli – Murillo, Balerdi (C), Kondogbia – Luis Henrique, Højbjerg, Nadir, Merlin – Greenwood, Gouiri, Rabiot.
