Very active on the transfer market, Olympique de Marseille will be able to count on a well-stocked squad this season.
A more than encouraging start to the season, an already well-oiled attack and a less busy schedule than the competition: all the lights are green for theMarseille OlympicsAfter 3 days of Ligue 1, the Marseille club is already hot on the heels of Paris Saint-Germain in the French championship standings.
Under the tutelage of Roberto De Zerbi, Marseille has every intention of restoring its reputation. And the club has pulled out all the stops to achieve this: in addition to the Italian coach, many major reinforcements have arrived this summer, such as English striker Mason Greenwood.
De Zerbi delighted with this new option for his midfield
A true researcher in his tactics, Roberto De Zerbi will therefore be spoiled for choice this season. And the transfer window does not say everything about Marseille’s strike force since in addition to these external signings, a player considered as an internal reinforcement also returns to the equation: Valentin Rongier.
Back from injury, the former Nantes player is already in De Zerbi’s mind, while he had been a key player for Jorge Sampaoli and Igor Tudor. “(Valentin) Rongier is an important player in our squad, he is doing well, he is training with us. We must not forget that he is coming back from a long injury of eight months, we are happy that he is available and in good health. It is now up to him to demonstrate on the field because there is a lot of competition but he is an important, versatile player, who can play in different positions and that is an added value for us.”
