According to L’Équipe, the player is suffering from muscular problems, making his participation highly uncertain. This would be a blow for Marseille, who are entering a decisive phase of their Ligue 1 campaign.

L’Équipe also reports that the injury is not serious and should not jeopardize Gouiri's season. The question remains whether the staff will risk fielding him, with OM facing high stakes in the coming weeks.
