After a difficult start to the season, Bamo Meïté, 22-year-old defender from Olympique de Marseille, could finally seize his chance. Hampered by a sprained ankle in March, the Ivorian has had limited playing time, with only 24 minutes in Ligue 1 this season. Although OM considered transferring him this summer, his potential is still recognized internally. According to La Provence, a manager confides: “He shows a very beautiful face. Happy and liberated, he comes back in shape, ready to fight for his place. »
An expected return against RC Lens?
With a Marseille defense in difficulty and a late return of Leonardo Balerdi from the selections, the match against Lens on November 23 seems propitious to revive Meïté. If he performs convincingly, the young defender could secure a regular place in Roberto De Zerbi’s team. However, if his appearances remain limited, a transfer during the winter transfer window could be considered, with several clubs, including Montpellier, already showing keen interest.
