Goal, captain’s armband, replaced after 71 minutes. On May 12th Samuel Gigot played his last match with Olympique Marseilleprobably leaving a good memory among the fans, even though three days earlier he was still captain but had lost 3-0 against Atalanta in the second act of the Europa League semi-final.
Today, however, Gigot is back as a starter after five and a half months. He is the twenty-second player who will send Baroni onto the field, taken almost hastily to try to close the gap caused by Nicolò Casale’s departure from Bologna. Lotito spoke about it like this two weeks ago. “Now Gigot will also take the field, you’ll see what a player he is.” Baroni instead explained his and Dele Bashiru’s choice in this way. “More than rotations, they will be opportunities for them. They are well and their time has come. They will probably be part of the match, which will help both of them improve. I always consider everyone to be absolutely starters.”
Physically strong, difficult to jump over, but also experienced and who has probably already accepted his role in Laziowhich is that of a possible alternative to the owners who are Gila and Romagnoli, with Patric who can be considered the first alternative, as seen in the match against Juventus when Romagnoli was sent off.
