This is the only black point of this week for Olympique de Marseille: while the Roberto de Zerbi team surfs on an excellent dynamic (victories against Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax Amsterdam), his infirmary is a little more.
Facundo Medina was forced to give up her place quickly in the match against Ajax. The Argentinian international has passed exams that revealed a sprain from the right ankle. A serious injury that should cause an absence of two months.

The absence of Medina is a particularly frustrating tile since the old Lensois, who arrived this summer from the Sang and Gold, had already lacked the start of the season for physical seeds.
OM has its replacement in the workforce
To fill the absence of Facundo Medina in the Champions League, Olympique de Marseille is considering an exceptional approach with UEFA: recalling a player not registered in the starting list for the Champions League.
A rule now possible in the event of a significant injury. That of Medina will generate plans for at least three games of the league phase: opposite the Sporting CP (October 22), against Atalanta Bergame (November 5) and against Newcastle (November 25).
