INJURY BLOW FOR MARSEILLE
L'OM had to obtain special permission from the French league to send Bosnian forward Alen Skoro to Swiss side Servette on loan in order to register Brazilian defender Luis.
However, the move has backfired with the news that Luis missed training on wednesday with a swollen foot, and will most probably miss the basement clash with Metz.
Bernard Tapie was deligthed when the Skoro deal wnet through as he is desperate for an up-turn in fortunes at the Stade Velodrome, with the side languishing to one place off the foot of the table with just one win this season.
Meanwhile, Jerome Leroy could be allowed to travel with the squad to Metz after hheld talks with coach Tomislav Ivic.
The troubled star has been in dispute with the club for some time now and claimed that he was close to a move to Premiership Middlesbrough, but he now says that he wants to stay and the club and fight for a place in the side.
