Mason Greenwood established himself as OM’s top scorer with 8 goals in Ligue 1. Roberto De Zerbi describes him as an “offensive star” and adopts careful management to maximize his impact on the pitch.

Arriving this summer at Olympique de Marseille for 26 million euros excluding bonuses, Mason Greenwood silenced sporting critics by establishing himself as one of the team’s offensive leaders. With already 8 goals in Ligue 1, he is currently the club’s top scorer behind Bradley Barcola. This investment, despite the controversies surrounding the player, already seems to be bearing fruit.

Roberto De Zerbi, OM coach, sees Greenwood as his “star striker”. According to RMC Sport, the Italian coach, won over by his performances, made him one of the pivots of his offensive system. This status is accompanied by careful management on the part of De Zerbi, between encouragement and tactical requirements.

Positive management to protect its star

To maximize Greenwood’s potential, De Zerbi adopts positive management, alternating between congratulations (“Good, Mason! Come on!”) and small barbs to stimulate him. This meticulous work is paying off, as evidenced by the English winger’s immediate impact on the pitch.

Internally, OM are unanimously impressed by Greenwood’s performance. His teammates praise his determination and professionalism, despite the enormous expectations weighing on his shoulders.
