Speaking at a press conference, Olympique de Marseille goalkeeper Gerónimo Rulli asserted that his team is progressing well towards becoming “the best team in France.” This statement comes even as they trail Paris Saint-Germain by a significant 13 points in the Ligue 1 standings.
Rulli acknowledged the desire to be closer to PSG in the league table and compete for the top spot. However, he emphasized the ongoing development of the team. He pointed to their average of over two points per game as evidence of positive progress in their approach.
“Everyone is driven by the ambition to win titles and achieve immediate success,” Rulli stated. “That’s our motivation, and winning titles is what I love most about football. I firmly believe we are on the right path to achieve our goal of becoming the best team in France. While the timeline remains uncertain, possibly months or even years, my conviction is unwavering that OM will reach the pinnacle of French football.”
Looking ahead, Rulli mentioned the upcoming match against Paris, but underscored the immediate importance of their next game in maintaining their positive trajectory. He indicated that reflections on the PSG match would come later, after focusing on the more immediate challenge.
