Modou Sougou Set to Return to Marseille After Loan Spell at Evian
Senegalese international Modou Sougou is set to return to Olympique de Marseille this Sunday, ahead of the club’s Ligue 1 clash on the fifth matchday. After spending the previous season on loan at Evian Thonon Gaillard, the forward shared his thoughts on Marseille’s promising start to the current campaign.
Speaking to Evian’s official website, Sougou expressed optimism about Marseille’s prospects this season. “They have a great team with quality players,” he said. “They’re going to do something this year. They’re evolving gradually and starting to accelerate. They’re a great team. They’re dangerous.”
Marseille’s early season form has been encouraging under their current setup, with the club aiming to return to the upper echelons of French football. The squad boasts a blend of experienced players and emerging talents, making them a formidable contender in Ligue 1.
Sougou’s experience with both Evian and Marseille gives him a unique perspective on the team’s progress. Having spent the last season adapting to regular top-flight football at Evian, he is expected to bring renewed energy and depth to Marseille’s attacking options.
The Senegalese forward’s return comes at a critical time as Marseille looks to build momentum in the league. His contribution could prove vital in maintaining their upward trajectory and challenging for higher league positions.
As Marseille prepares for the upcoming fixtures, the club and fans alike will be hopeful that Sougou’s reintegration into the squad will add an extra dimension to their offensive play.
