Between a decision by the LFP that will not please Greenwood, a serious defence track and a former Lyonnais on the tablets, Marseille news was well filled this Wednesday. If you didn’t have time to follow the Olympian day, here are the three informations to remember: Greenwood loses a goal (and points in the scorers’ standings), Ramy Bensebaini is in the sights for the mercato and Houssem Aouar could find Ligue 1… in colors other than OL.
The Professional Football League ended the suspense. The second goal of the Olympique de Marseille in the 4-1 win over Brest last Sunday at the Vélodrome will not be credited to Mason Greenwood.

Thus, the goal is now recorded as a goal against his camp in Chardonnet. Greenwood, who is still stuck at 18 goals in Ligue 1 this season and was hoping to get back to the scoring.
In addition, the triple of Amine Gouiri, registered on the same day, was validated by the LFP. OM’s striker remains stuck at 18 goals in Ligue 1 this season, still behind Ousmane Dembélé, leader in the scoring with 21 achievements.
