Despite earlier concerns about his health, Dimitri Payet has been included in the 18-player squad for Marseille’s match against Rennes. This is a positive development for Marseille as they prepare to face Rennes in the 30th round of Ligue 1.
Payet, who had been uncertain due to a fever earlier in the week, is now feeling better and ready to contribute to the team. Marseille will also benefit from the return of their Tunisian striker Saber Khalifa, providing additional attacking options.
However, Marseille will be without the services of Brice Dja Djédjé, who has been sidelined due to an injury to his right ankle. Despite his absence, Marseille coach José Anigo can still rely on a strong squad for the crucial match against Rennes.
The Marseille squad for the match includes:
- Goalkeepers: Mandanda, Samba
- Defenders: Diawara, Fanni, Mendes, Mendy, Morel, Nkoulou
- Midfielders: Imbula, Lemina, Ayew, Valbuena, Cheyrou, Romao
- Forwards: Gignac, Khalifa, Payet, Thauvin
