Good news for OM

OM is suffering, weighted by four defeats in five championship days but also and above all by the injury contracted by its captain Leonardo Balerdi last weekend in Reims. For Roberto de Zerbi, the alternatives in defense are reduced to sorrow, the Italian technician having to compose now with a single axial business: Derek Cornelius. The winter recruit Luiz Felipe Ramos is also on the side.

There lies the good news of the day for OM, the echoes from Marseille being optimistic about the evolution from which this last Italian-Brazilian reinforcement suffers. Hit in the hamstrings since the match against Paris, the Al-Ittihad defector this winter is already in the individual recovery phase and could therefore regain service within 10 to 15 days. Too short for the reception of Toulouse on Saturday, Luiz Felipe Ramos will potentially also be for the trip to Monaco on April 12. But the interested party should be restored to welcome Montpellier on April 19, and thus offer his coach an additional option to face the end of the season.
