**Marseille Face Uncertain Future Ahead of Ligue 1 Clash with Paris Saint-Germain**
Marseille head into Sunday’s highly anticipated Ligue 1 clash against Paris Saint-Germain under a cloud of uncertainty. The Phocéens suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Slovan Liberec in the Europa League on Thursday, marking their second consecutive loss at the Vélodrome and extending their winless run to four matches across all competitions.
Defender Benjamin Mendy did not hold back in his post-match comments, expressing frustration at the team’s recent performances.
“I’m not dejected, it’s disgust. It’s not normal to suffer so many defeats, especially against a team like this,” Mendy said. “Mentally, we were so sure that in the end it wouldn’t work out. A solution? We have to stop thinking we’re I don’t know who and be efficient up front and at the back to get back to winning ways. We’ll keep moving forward, but we have to stop enjoying defeat. We’re not defeatists.”
Looking ahead to the marquee showdown against PSG, Mendy insisted the team will put recent struggles behind them. “It’s still a clasico, what happens before that can be forgotten, and for 90 minutes we’ll have to give it our all,” he added.
Marseille now face the daunting task of regrouping quickly as they prepare to host the French champions, with momentum and pride on the line in one of Ligue 1’s fiercest rivalries.
