Emerson
32-Year-Old
Marseille
Ligue 1
Seven crosses in defeat
Emerson recorded one shot (zero on goal), seven crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Friday's 1-0 loss against Rennes.
ANALYSIS
Emerson was Marseille's most active wide contributor in Friday's 1-0 Ligue 1 defeat at Rennes, delivering seven crosses of which three were accurate and making two interceptions across a full 90-minute shift that saw him consistently overlap and threaten Rennes' right side throughout a first half Marseille largely controlled. He also delivered two corners that forced Brice Samba into intervention, contributing to a Marseille attacking performance that deserved at least a point based on the number of clear-cut opportunities created. Emerson has now started all four of Marseille's Ligue 1 fixtures this season and his consistent two-way contributions have been one of the few positives in a deeply disappointing start to the campaign under new coach Bruno Genesio.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to leave West Ham?
Emerson is one of several West Ham players who could leave the club in the summer, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
The Hammers are planning a massive squad overhaul in the summer, and several players are expected to depart the club as a result of the team's poor performances. Emerson has been losing his starting role with the passing months, and the Hammers aren't keen on keeping him around. They feel Oliver Scarles can be the long-term option at the position, and Scarles has already made 12 Premier League appearances in 2024/25.
