For the Besiktas reception on Thursday evening (9 p.m.), Pierre Sage will be able to count on an almost complete group. When Nemanja Matic and Nicolas Tagliafico return to OL, Mahamadou Diawara will be absent.

With the arrival of a Turkish club and even if this keeps the neighboring and hated club, the Turkish journalists present in Décines this Wednesday could not help asking about the Wilfried case Zaha. The Ivorian striker, still Galatasaray two months ago, struggled to launch his adventure at OL and was even left out of the group for the trip to Havre. However, Peter Sage announced that he “There is a chance of seeing him against Besiktas”. Not necessarily a risk-taking on the part of the coach since the UEFA lists allow up to 23 names to be written on the sheet, therefore fewer choices to make. In any case, the arrival of the Istanbul club should allow the winger to make his return and perhaps to make amends for certain behaviors which were not in the service of the collective.

The supposed return of Zaha should be accompanied by those of Nicolas Tagliafico and Nemanja Matic. The two players, absent in Le Havre, were not classified in the list of absentees by Pierre Sage, unlike Mahamadou Diawara. The young midfielder will not be part of OL’s third European outing against Besiktas. “Only one player is unavailable, it is Mahamadou Diawara.” With a week of three matches between Le Havre, Besiktas and Auxerre on Sunday, Pierre Sage will have the opportunity to rotate and concern everyone.
