Tadjidine Mmadi
OM
Returns to team training
Mmadi (undisclosed) was present in Marseille's team training Wednesday after being rested during France U20's friendly against England due to a minor injury, according to La Minute OM.
Analysis: Mmadi's return to full training suggests the issue that kept him out against England was minor and that the decision to rest him was precautionary. The youngster appears to have avoided a setback after picking up the problem late in France U20's previous match against Germany. He has remained a peripheral option for Marseille this season, totaling just 28 minutes across three appearances in all competitions.
Rested after injury
Mmadi (undisclosed) was rested for France U20's 2-1 friendly loss to England on Tuesday after picking up an injury late in Friday's match against Germany, according to Le Phoceen.
Analysis: Mmadi was held out against England as a precaution after sustaining the injury late in his previous international appearance. The extent of the issue remains unclear, making his status worth monitoring when he returns to Marseille. The youngster has played a limited role at club level this season, totaling just 28 minutes across three appearances in all competitions.
Scores off bench in friendly
Mmadi scored a goal off the bench in Sunday's 3-1 friendly win over Athletic Club, a performance that could push Marseille to integrate him into the rotation ahead of the 2026/27 season, the club posted.
Analysis: Mmadi recently signed a contract extension through 2029 after working his way up through the club's youth ranks, having made just four official appearances so far, all this past season. This latest showing adds to the case for more consistent playing time, though it remains to be seen whether the club accelerates his path into the regular rotation or continues easing him in gradually.
