Revelations about the drop in form of Azzedine Ounahi

Jean-Louis Gasset, coach of Olympique de Marseille, gives the reason for the drop in form of the Moroccan midfielder, Azzedine Ounahi, one of the architects of the brilliant run of the Atlas Lions at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

Arrived at Olympique de Marseille (OM) during the winter transfer window for 8 million euros thanks to his brilliant participation in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, punctuated by a semi-final, Azzedine Ounahi is struggling to launch his adventure in the Phocaean city. At the origin of this difficulty, an injury to the toe. "Ounahi was extraordinary at the World Cup. I think his toe injury has caused him a lot of problems," said Gasset at the pre-match press conference against Rennes for the 26th round of Ligue 1 scheduled for this Sunday, March 17, 2024 at the Roazhon Park.

The French coach of Olympique de Marseille added: "He was operated on and is still recovering. Last week, he was not in the group because he had a knee problem. I hope he will regain the level he had at the World Cup."
