Marseille predicted XI vs Lille: Ismaël Bennacer to start
L'Équipe understands that Roberto De Zerbi is set to make one change to his team that comprehensively defeated Brest 4-1 last time out. The defence is set to remain unchanged with Geoffrey Kondogbia keeping his place as a makeshift centre back.
In midfield, Valentin Rongier is set to drop to the bench with Ismaël Bennacer promoted to the starting eleven. The attack should also remain unchanged with Amine Gouiri continuing to lead the line fresh from his hat trick against Brest.
Gerónimo Rulli – Michael Murillo, Leonardo Balerdi, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Ulisses Garcia – Pierre-Emile Højberg, Adrien Rabiot, Ismaël Bennacer – Mason Greenwood, Amine Gouiri, Luis Henrique.

'A perfect spot for him' - Tony Meola endorses Tim Weah's reported move to Olympique Marseille, suggests USMNT player wanted out of Juventus
Meola says Weah pushed for a transfer Says positional inconsistency is motivation Marseille a competitive destination with familiar league WHAT HAPPENED With Tim Weah reportedly a transfer target for Olympique Marseille, former USMNT star Tony Meola endorsed the potential move away from Juventus, especially joining a team with Champions League aspirations. 'Marseille has spent some money over the last two years,' Meola said on the CBS Sports Golazo America podcast. 'This could be a fit... I'm interested to see where Roberto De Zerbi thinks he's going to play. Does he think he's going to play as a wing back because he plays in like a 3-4-3? Does he think he's going to play a little bit higher up the field when he does play with four. Is he a fullback? Is he a winger in that group? "So maybe and he plays on that right side like a right winger so you know... so it's a team that has spent some money and over the last couple years have said that they want to compete at the top of the table and be in Champions League." WHAT MEOLA SAID Meola noted that Weah appeared to be advocating for the move despite playing significant minutes at Juventus last season. 'It seems like he sort of now pushing for this move," Meola said. "There's a couple things that could happen. The messaging he got from Igor Tudor is not the messaging he wanted to hear. He didn't like the situation he was in last year, where he was every week we're just trying to figure out where the hell Timothy Weah was going to fit in and where he was going to play." Meola suggested that Weah was unhappy at Juventus, and wanted to make a move to what he considers a perfect destination. 'I feel like this is more Timothy Weah talking about he wants to move and all of this stuff - the rumors are that he is interested in moving and that he's basically spoken to the club about moving," he said. "I feel like it's coming more from him, which leads me to believe that he's just not happy with what's happening at Juve. It's just a massive club but I still go back to, it's a club where he had really good success last year and was on a great pathway until the initial injury albeit with a different manager at the time. "But it still looked like he was finally settling into a club - remember he won a Coppa Italia the year before... So he's got a nice little history at the club but it just seems like he wants out at Juve and this seems a perfect spot for him.' THE BIGGER PICTURE Weah signed for Juventus in the summer of 2023 from LOSC Lille, and has since made 78 appearances for the club, contributing to 14 goals across all competitions. WHAT'S NEXT? Weah is expected to sign with Olympique Marseille on loan with a €14 million obligation to buy.

Report – Inter Milan Target & Ex-Man Utd Star Set To Stay At Marseille Amid Al-Nassr Interest
Mason Greenwood will, in all likelihood, stay at Marseille despite growing interest from Al-Nassr and Inter Milan. According to TalkSPORT via FCInterNews, the Englishman is on the verge of committing to Les Olympiens for the long term. Greenwood has emerged as a potential backup target for Inter amid drawn-out talks with Atalanta over Ademola Lookman. Indeed, the Serie A runners-up are evaluating various other profiles while remaining alert to potential market opportunities. Mason Greenwood Close to Staying at Marseille Amid Al-Nassr & Inter Milan Interest GETAFE, SPAIN – MARCH 16: Mason Greenwood of Getafe CF warms up prior to the LaLiga EA Sports match between Getafe CF and Girona FC at Coliseum Alfonso Perez on March 16, 2024 in Getafe, Spain. (Photo by) While waiting for permission to join Jamaica's national team, Greenwood is drawing inquiries across Europe. However, his immediate future seemingly lies at the Stade Velodrome. Despite landing on Al-Nassr's radar, the former Manchester United starlet looks destined to stay in Europe. Inter would be a more attractive option for the 23-year-old, yet he is not the primary target for the Nerazzurri. Therefore, another season in Ligue 1 looks like a virtual certainty for the versatile forward.
