Scores three in three friendlies
Paixao has scored three goals in the last three friendlies and is in good shape, positioning him to likely hold the leader role of Marseille's attack in 2026/27 if he remains at the club, the club posted.
Analysis: Paixao finished last season with six goals and five assists across 30 Ligue 1 appearances, adding to a strong debut campaign after his move from Feyenoord. His hot preseason form reinforces his standing as one of the club's most dangerous attacking weapons, though his long term future remains something to monitor given the level of interest he continues to draw.
Should return against Nantes
Paixao (calf) returned to team training and is expected to be back in the squad for Saturday's trip to Nantes, according to La Minute OM.
Analysis: Paixao had been sidelined for two weeks after sustaining a calf injury during the defeat at Lorient, but his return to collective sessions is right on the timeline that had been set. The Brazilian winger has been Marseille's most dangerous attacking weapon in recent weeks and his comeback is a significant boost for coach Habib Beye heading into the final stretch of the season. If deemed fit to do so, Paixao should regain his starting role against the Canaries.
