Luis Henrique: the Brazilian lighting up Marseille under Roberto De Zerbi The young Brazilian forward has been sensational in Ligue 1 this season.
“I didn’t necessarily expect to have the start to the season that I’ve had but, with De Zerbi arriving and then having a great pre-season, that gave me a lot of confidence,” says Henrique, who says he has a “father-son relationship” with his manager.
Henrique joined Marseille from Botafogo in 2020 at the age of 18 but he failed to establish himself in France, scoring just one goal in 49 matches.
It is a famous club that should be at the highest level.” Marseille are 10 points behind league leaders PSG, but Henrique is not throwing in the towel yet.
Henrique has returned to the Vélodrome and it was his late volleyed goal that gave Marseille a 3-2 win over their fierce rivals in the Choc des Olympiques.
