OM’s best defender under the orders of Igor Tudor, Chancel Mbemba returns to play this Sunday in Brest after leading the Congolese to the semi-finals of the African Cup of Nations.

The expulsion of Samuel Gigot, the February 9 during OM-FC Metz (1-1 – 21st day of Ligue 1), will benefit Chancel Mbemba. The central defender will be lined up on Sunday in Brest, barring any surprises, to respond to the suspension of the Olympian captain.

Gennaro Gattuso, OM coach, hopes that the captain of DR Congo, semi-finalist of the last African Cup of Nations, will return to the level he displayed last season under the orders of Croatian Igor Tudor . Chancel Mbemba was the best defender of the Marseille team.

The OM group in Brest:

Guardians: Lopez, Blanco, Ngapandouetnbu

Defenders: Balerdi, Mbemba, Meïté, Clauss, Garcia, Merlin

Environments : Kondogbia, Onana, Ounahi, Harit, Soglo
