This is one of the great satisfactions of this start to the season for Olympique de Marseille. Trained within the Marseille club, Robinio Vaz showed great things and scored big points each time Roberto De Zerbi called on him. This is evidenced by the 4 goals and 2 assists to his credit in 13 appearances (all competitions combined).
As he gains more and more weight within the Olympian squad, the young 18-year-old striker does not leave anyone indifferent. The French U20 international has particularly caught the eye of Senegal, his parents’ country of origin, who want to convince him to defend the colors of the Lions of Teranga. This was confirmed by the Senegalese coach, Pape Thiaw.
“ I actually went to Marseille to watch it. He is a young player who has potential. I got closer to his family, the discussions continue. I know it’s a national request », he recently confided about the Marseillais, who has the choice between France and Senegal.
Robinio Vaz gives priority to France
Despite Senegalese requests, Robinio Vaz would not consider changing his sporting nationality for the moment, says Provence. The native of Mantes-la-Jolie (Yvelines) would be totally focused on the French selections.
