Very active on the transfer market, Olympique de Marseille continues to strengthen its squad.

“We are very proud to present Luiz Felipe, a 27-year-old defender who played in the Spanish and Italian championships. I know him well because he played, like me, at Lazio. He goes fast, he is strong in duels and with his head. He likes to defend. We are very proud of his arrival. He has a strong character, he has a good state of mind, which corresponds to Marseille. He will bring his experience into the locker room. »

It was in these laudatory terms that Fabrizio Ravanelli introduced the official presentation of Luiz Felipe on Wednesday. The new reinforcement of theMarseille Olympic arrives in Ligue 1 with a flattering reputation. Hard on man, experienced, with a leadership character, Luiz Felipe has seduced Roberto De Zerbi, who will have a strong option for the second part of the season.

“He has everything to succeed at OM”

Former assistant to Maurizio Sarri at Lazio, Giovanni Martusciello said all the good things he thought of the new recruit from Olympique de Marseille. “ Luiz is a worker, who wants to progress, underlined the technician in comments taken up by Le Phocéen. He was specific, he was very active during the video sessions, asked questions, always wanted feedback on his mistakes, on his placement. »

“With us, he played right central defender,” continued Sarri’s ex-deputy. He has a lot of personality, very good technique, he is elastic and has great muscular explosiveness, he is quite fast and he does not suffer. He is never afraid, is very courageous in duels, sometimes at the risk of getting hurt. I think he has everything to succeed at OM, where he will find an extraordinary coach, who builds from the back like Sarri did. » This bodes well for the De Zerbi software.
