OM could be deprived of one of their key players during their opposition against Rennes on Sunday in the Coupe de France.

Sunday evening, for the round of 16 of the Coupe de France, OM will face Stade Rennais. A big shock during which the Phocaeans could be deprived of their midfield boss.

An increasingly decimated OM

Geoffrey Kondogbia is uncertain for this opposition. He has not yet recovered from the blow he received against Strasbourg (1-1) last week. This Friday, and 48 hours before the match, the Central African international did not train. His participation in the duel against the Rouge et Noir has not yet been completely ruled out, but it is hypothetical.

Gennaro Gattuso, the Marseille coach, confirmed the bad news in a pre-match press conference. “Yes, Kondogbia was missing in training. He wasn’t 100%. We will do a test on Saturday”he told reporters.

If Kondogbia were to forfeit this match, OM will find themselves seriously deprived in the midfield. The young Emran Soglo (18 years old) could be lined up in his place alongside Bilal Nadir and Jordan Veretout.
