Gattuso deprived of a centerpiece! OM weakened for the match in Athens

Olympique de Marseille faces a tough blow before their Europa League match. Injured against Lille on Saturday, Valentin Rongier will be absent for several weeks and could miss the rest of the year, thus impacting Gennaro Gattuso’s plans.

Two days before the trip to Athens in the Europa League, Olympique de Marseille will have to do without one of its strong elements, Valentin Rongier.

Affected against Lille (0-0), this Saturday during the 11th day of Ligue 1, the Mâconnais should be unavailable for several weeks.

According to information revealed by The Team this Tuesday, the OM captain suffered from a knee sprain. And according to our colleagues, he could well be absent until the end of 2023.

This should not suit Marseille coach Gennaro Gattuso. Indeed, with 6 appearances since the arrival of the Italian technician at Canebière, the former Nantes player is the player most used by “ Ringhio » within the Marseille midfield.
