CAN 2025: OM and Roberto De Zerbi in the dark | OneFootball

Roberto De Zerbi

Just days before the 2025 AFCON, OM and Roberto De Zerbi are surrounded by uncertainty.

From December 21 to January 18, the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations will take place in Morocco. But this period poses a real headache for clubs. Olympique de Marseille may have to line up without key players called up for AFCON duty as they gear up to face Union Saint-Gilloise in the Champions League on December 9. Roberto De Zerbi, the Marseille boss, finds himself in the dark.

"I'm not sure about anything, I'm waiting, just like everyone else, to find out what the situation will be. The important thing is that there's consistency: either everyone can play, or no one can. I don't know why the match against Union Saint-Gilloise is at risk. I read about it, but I haven't been given an explanation. I hope I can use them, especially Aguerd and Aubameyang, they're two very important players for us," the Italian told the media on Friday.
