Steve Mandanda, the long-standing goalkeeper and captain of Olympique de Marseille (OM), is rumored to be leaving the club at the end of the season. With his potential departure, there is speculation about who will take over the captain’s armband for the team.
According to reports from Provence, André Ayew is being considered by Marcelo Bielsa, the new OM coach, to be both the team’s spearhead and its captain for the upcoming season. This show of confidence from the coach could be a significant factor in convincing Ayew to stay at the club. Despite interest from several top European clubs, the Ghanaian international has not completely ruled out the possibility of continuing his career at OM.
