OM Faces Nice with Last-Minute Injury but Welcomes Two Key Players Back to the Squad

Tonight, OM faces a tough challenge in Nice, a venue where they have struggled in recent visits, losing four out of their last six matches at the Allianz Riviera. Coach Roberto De Zerbi will be without several key players, including Facundo Medina, sidelined due to an ankle sprain, Amir Murillo, who has a left thigh injury, and Nayef Aguerd, suffering from early-stage groin pain.

In midfield, there was uncertainty regarding Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s participation. Ultimately, he has not been called up, having missed the training before the match. Hamed Traoré remains out with a right thigh injury, and Amine Gouiri has recently undergone shoulder surgery. On a positive note, Bilal Nadir and Leonardo Balerdi return to the squad after several weeks away. Young players Darryl Bakola, Tadjidine Mmadi, and Robinio Vaz have also been included, alongside Neal Maupay, who was already part of the team before the break against Brest, another of his former clubs.
