The head coach of the French "Marseille" Igor Tudor told what are the main difficulties in adapting the Ukrainian newcomer of his team Ruslan Malinovsky to the French championship.
Igor Tudor“In the French championship, the pace is higher than in the Italian championship. This comes to the fore even if Atalanta, from which Malinovsky came to us, plays football similar to that in the French Ligue 1. We have our own specifics of football players and playing styles, and this requires more pace than the one that exists in Serie A.
And Malinovsky didn't really have time to adapt to such a pace yet. But it is important that he is universal, and can play, in fact, everywhere - both on the right, on the left, and in the position "under the striker". As for the rest, I'm sure Malinovsky will succeed. Moreover, we expect that already this season. Ruslan has everything for this. Including both physical condition and mentality,” Tudor quotes “Le phoceen”.
Recall that last Sunday Malinovsky scored the first goal for Marseille.
