One of the members of the Olympique de Marseille locker room is convinced that the Englishman will bring something extra to the Marseille team.

Mason Greenwood officially joined Olympique de Marseille on July 18 for a fee of 26 million euros, excluding bonuses.

The third most expensive signing in the history of the Phocéens, behind Vitinha and Dimitri Payet, the young English striker wasted no time in getting into the swing of things. During the friendly match against Pau (3-0) this Saturday, the ex-Red Devil took the opportunity to score his first goal with OM.

Balerdi sees the positive

During this meeting, the 22-year-old right winger delivered a fine performance, which prompted an encouraging remark from his teammate, Argentinian defender Leonardo Balerdi.

“Yes, he just arrived. He was in another league, it’s a bit difficult, but every time he touches the ball, you can see that he is clear with the ball. If he can try to finish the action, he tries, and then, if he can’t, he comes back. He will give us a lot in this league.”said the South American rock.
