Marseille expect to lose Michael Murillo for several weeks
However, for the upcoming weeks, De Zerbi may be forced to find alternative solutions. The Panama international was brought off in just the 23rd minute of Sunday night's win over FC Nantes at the Vélodrome. Pol Lirola came on in his place before then later making way himself for Luiz Felipe later in the encounter.
Post-match, De Zerbi provided an update on Murillo, revealing that the defender was suffering from a hamstring issue. The Italian manager added that the defender will likely be ruled out for several weeks with the issue. He therefore looks certain to miss next weekend's game against RC Lens, as well as the Classique, against Paris Saint-Germain, later this month.

Italian soccer great Giorgio Chiellini joins LAFC ownership group
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Italian soccer great Giorgio Chiellini will be returning to Los Angeles FC as part of the club's ownership group, the team said Tuesday. The 40-year-old Chiellini, who spent nearly two decades playing for Italian club Juventus before joining LAFC in 2022, also spent time as a player development coach with the MLS team in 2024. 'Joining the LAFC ownership group is a great honor for me,' Chiellini said in a statement released by the team. 'When I arrived here three years ago as a player, I immediately felt that there was something special about this club. It is an ambitious organization, built by extraordinary people and supported by a community that truly makes you feel at home. That is why, last year, I expressed my desire to become an owner, and now I'm proud to continue this journey and give my support to a project I deeply believe in.' Chiellini, one of the best defenders in the world during his 23-year professional career, retired in 2023. He won nine consecutive Serie A championships with Juventus and the Euro 2020 title with the Italian national team. His final two seasons were spent with LAFC, where he appeared in 45 matches, including seven in the MLS Cup Playoffs and three in the 2023 Leagues Cup. During his many years with Juventus, Chiellini earned Serie A Defensive Player of the Year honors three times in addition to being named to the Italian league's Team of the Year five times.
