An important player in the Marseille squad should be repositioned in the next matches.

If the signature

from Adrien Rabiot to Olympique de Marseille is the event of the week in the French football landscape, this arrival will above all redistribute the cards within the squad of the Marseille club. At 29 years old, Rabiot arrives in Marseille to bring added value in the midfield, where his activity, with and without the ball, should be very useful.

For Roberto De Zerbi, this move further strengthens the competition in an already well-stocked playing sector. Danish international Pierre-Emile Højbjerg has immediately established himself as an indispensable player in midfield, while Canadian Ismaël Koné offers an additional option to the Italian coach. What about Geoffrey Kondogbia?

De Zerbi’s good idea?

According to information from RMC Sport, the Central African international could get some playing time by moving back to central defense. A role that Kondogbia has already occupied since the beginning of his career. Powerful, athletic, imposing in the air and with good technical quality to restart, the former Atlético de Madrid player seems to have a predisposition for this position.

As a reminder, Kondogbia was announced in the list of players placed in the loft last summer. Roberto De Zerbi admitted that he did not count on the player at first, but the contact between the two men was very positive, and Kondogbia convinced the Italian to include him in his plans.
