Montpellier predicted XI v Marseille: experience sidelined as Téji Savanier drops to bench | OneFootball

There will be a complete squad overhaul at Montpellier HSC this summer with the likes of Téji Savanier, Andy Delort, Benjamin Lecomte, Wahbi Khazri, Issiaga Sylla, and Jordan Ferri all invited to leave the club. Whilst they all remain at the club for now, new manager Zoumana Camara is already preparing for the future and will drop many of those big names as MHSC visit Olympique de Marseille on Saturday night.

Delort missed last weekend’s loss with illness but returns to the squad. He will not start, however, with Tanguy Coulibaly leading the line. Savanier will also be on the bench having also not started last weekend. Ferri and Lecomte, although touted for departures, are expected to start for La Paillade with the latter captaining the side.

Bamo Meïte is suspended for this tie, whilst Modibo Sagnan is injured for Montpellier, limiting Camara’s options in defence.
