Enzo Molebé, young OL striker (credit: David Hernandez)
Young striker Enzo Molebe played his first minutes with the professionals on Thursday against Qarabag (1-4). Just 17 years old.
The fourth was the right one. For his fourth score sheet with the “big guys”, Enzo A leech finally experienced the immense joy of playing in a professional match. On Thursday, the striker came on for the last ten minutes in place of Malick Breathing during the confrontation against Qarabag (1-4). A first for the footballer of the 2007 generation, who had already appeared on the bench against Strasbourg (4-3), Auxerre (2-2) and Hoffenheim (2-2), without coming into play.
This time, the score being acquired, Pierre Sage launched him into the deep end for a baptism of fire in European Cup mode that he will remember for a long time. Seen in the pro group during preparation, playing friendly matches, Molebe then quite logically returned to reserve. Over this first half of the season, he played six matches with Gueïda's team Breathing and another in U19. He also suffered a minor injury in early October.
597th professional player in club history
Aged 17 since September, he is the first of his generation to make his professional debut, and the 597th to write his name in OL history. A more or less linear continuation after signing his contract last June. In a very dense sector, even if competition from Wilfried Zaha a poison Orban is visibly relative (the two players did not make the trip to Baku), we will carefully scrutinize Pierre's choices Sage concerning him. Remember that the Coupe de France will close the year on the weekend of December 21 and 22. Another opportunity to see Molebe again with the grown-ups?
