In the absence of Pierre André Gignac, Saber Khalifa was tasked with leading Marseille’s attack against Nice in the advanced match of the 28th day of Ligue 1 this Friday.
However, despite his efforts, the Tunisian international remained silent against Nice (0-1). Following the match, Khalifa expressed his frustration over his lack of playing time with the team. Marseille’s coach, José Anigo, acknowledged that while Khalifa and other players have the opportunity to step up in Gignac’s absence, they must seize every chance to prove themselves.
Anigo emphasized that the solution exists within the team to replace Gignac, but it requires players like Khalifa to make the most of their opportunities on the field. Despite appearing 23 times this season, the 27-year-old forward has only managed to score one goal, highlighting the need for greater effectiveness in front of goal.
