After Luis Enrique, it is the turn of Marseille coach Jean-Louis Gasset to unveil his squad for the OM-PSG Classic this Sunday evening at the Vélodrome stadium (8:45 p.m.). Long uncertain, Balerdi, Gigot, Gueye and Garcia are available.
The pressure is mounting in Marseille a few hours before the Classic against Paris Saint-Germain. Upon returning from the international break, Jean-Louis Gasset was without several players to prepare this poster for the 27th day of Ligue 1. Jonathan Clauss, injured with the France team against Chile, joined Valentin Rongier in the infirmary , Jean Onana, Bamo Meïté or Amir Murillo. These players are out, just like Ismaëla Sarr (hamstring). Despite these numerous physical glitches, the last few hours have brought good news to the Marseille coach.

The young Brice Negouai in the group
Still uncertain on Saturday, Samuel Gigot (shoulder), Ulisses Garcia (adductors), Leonardo Balerdi (adductors) and Pape Gueye (calf) are all operational for the clash and appear in Jean-Louis Gasset’s group. In what physical form? Hard to say.
Reduced in defense, the Olympian coach also called on young central defender Brice Negouai (22 years old, no appearance in Ligue 1).
A little earlier Sunday morning, his Parisian counterpart Luis Enrique also revealed his group. At the Stade Vélodrome, the championship leaders will be deprived of Marquinhos, Nuno Mendes and Bradley Barcola. But they will be able to count on the returns of Milan Skriniar and Marco Asensio.
