I hope the stadium will push us throughout the match. » In the event of a victory, OM could put themselves back in the race for the podium. “We are seventh, Monaco have five more points so we can come back to within two points of them.

Gennaro Gattuso also took the opportunity to talk about the winter transfer window. “We have three recruits at the moment, including a player who is still at the CAN. I am a coach and not an accountant or banker. If another player arrives, so much the better. Otherwise, I would do my job regardless of the workforce,” underlined the former midfielder, before giving way to president Pablo Longoria, who came to present Ulisses Garcia.
