Here are the 3 pieces of information that you shouldn't miss in the news from Olympique de Marseille this Saturday, November 30, 2024.
Mercato OM: The return of a summer track?
Serious track announced very close to OM this summer, Kiliann Sildillia would again be in the sights of the Marseille club according to the Team.
The 21-year-old French hopeful international fullback, silver medalist at the last Olympics, did not join OM this summer, after several weeks of intense negotiations, which led him to restart a season with the club of the Black Forest, SC Fribourg.
A mixed start to the season…
After his abortive departure for OM, the man who had played 38 matches in all competitions, only played 4 short matches with the German club without the slightest start. The fault in particular is a few physical glitches which have kept him off the field for a good part of the time since the start of the season.
A lead at the right-back position which should lead to a departure at this same position. In fact, always according to the Teamthe one who should pay the price for this potential arrival of the young Frenchman would be Amir Murillo more than Pol Lirola. The Panamanian, who already occupies an extra-community place, would be followed by a few European clubs, interested in his profile.

Mercato OM: The rumor about a French international has cooled!
In recent days, several rumors have reported an interest from Olympique de Marseille in French international Benoît Badiashile (2 caps). However, according to information from Foot Mercato, this track seems very unrealistic.
Indeed, the 23-year-old central defender, currently under contract with Chelsea, has been mentioned as a potential avenue for the Marseille club, in search of a right central defender for the next transfer window. A rumor which would therefore unfortunately be unfounded according to Foot Market.
No contact with OM
According to the media specializing in the transfer window, no concrete contact took place between the player's entourage and OM, despite the rumors. In addition, Badiashile, who joined the Blues in January 2023 for an amount of 38 million euros from Monaco, would rather be followed by German and Italian clubs. The media also informs us that the former Monegasque does not seem in a hurry to leave London. Although he has experienced ups and downs since his arrival, notably due to several injuries which have already kept him away from the field for several months, the young defender would remain focused on his future at Stamford Bridge.
OM, in search of a right central defender, will therefore have to turn to other avenues such as that leading to the Brazilian defender of Juventus, Danilo. Indeed, according to information from the TEAMthe good relations between Juventus and OM could allow serious progress to be made in this matter.
Which eleven against Monaco?
Olympique de Marseille hosts Monaco this Sunday, November 30, 2024 at the Vélodrome stadium for the 13th day of Ligue 1. What line-up will Roberto De Zerbi line up against the Monegasques in this clash at the top for second place in the ranking?
Last week, theABOUT pulled off an excellent coup by managing to overcome the Lensois blood and gold (1-3) at the Bollaert stadium. This victory, which allowed them to stay in contact with ASM, should allow Marseille to get a result against the team led by Adi Hütter. The Marseillais, currently third three points behind the red and white, must imperatively win so as not to let the principality's team slip away in the fight for second place. The reception of ASM therefore promises to be a major challenge against a direct competitor in a stadium where De Zerbi's men have been struggling since the start of the championship.
Roberto De Zerbi will be able to rely on an almost complete group for this meeting. The entire group should be available. The Italian coach will therefore have to make strong choices to make a big move on Sunday evening.

Rowe or Henry?
Roll will start in goal, with a central defense probably made up of Balerdi et Kondogbia (or Derek Cornelius). Lirola will compete with Murillo to animate the right side while Quentin Merlin should find a starting place on the left. Højbjerg et Rabiotessential, will hold the heart of the game, while Rongier will certainly occupy the third place in midfield. Greenwood, Rowe (or Henry) et Maupay should begin on the front of the Olympian attack.
The probable OM eleven:
Probable starting XI: Rulli – Murrillo, Balerdi (cap), Kondogbia, Merlin – Rabiot, Hojbjerg, Rongier – Greenwood, Rowe (ou henrique), Maupay
