Wilfried Zaha, OL winger (credit: David Hernandez)
Having arrived at OL on the last day of the transfer window, Wilfried Zaha has had two weeks to get used to his new surroundings. However, the Ivorian winger is not at 100% of his abilities.
There are 28 of them on the starting line, there will only be 21 heading to Lens on Sunday morning. Six players and a goalkeeper will remain on the floor and already some trends are emerging. Still not having extended, Rayan Cherki could remain on the fringes of the group, “This is because he is training and his contractual aspects are sorted out.”. Like Paul I’m with you or Enzo Molebe. For the rest, we will have to wait until the last training session this Saturday to see Pierre Sage make his final choices. However, certain physical conditions could push the coach of theOL not to retain certain elements. This Friday, Sage admitted that Warmed Omari “played two matches with his national team. He came back a little tired.”
“Time before playing 90 minutes for Zaha”
Jordan Veretout is it operational after having made the preparation with the reserve of theABOUT. No physical delay therefore for the French midfielder, unlike Wilfried Zaha. Having arrived on the last day of the transfer window between Rhône and Saône, the Ivorian was able to train with the group that had stayed in Décines for the last ten days. This allowed him to get to know his new environment a little better, but also to start compensating for his lack of form. “He arrived a little out of shape, because he trained a little less at the end of the transfer window while waiting for a possible departure. I think he will need a little time to be able to play 90 minutes.” In Lens, the former Crystal Palace could therefore play the luxury replacements. One more.
