GOAL reviews the major takeaways from Americans playing in Europe, including yet another goal from the Monaco striker

Real Madrid outcast Endrick has made up his mind on a potential move to Marseille, which could see the Brazilian youngster link up with Mason Greenwood in France in the January transfer window. After a difficult debut campaign at Santiago Bernabeu, which saw the teenager struggle for game time, things have worsened under Xabi Alonso, as he has yet to feature in a La Liga or Champions League match in the new season.

Mason Greenwood has been given a harsh reality check after putting in a four-goal performance for Marseille in their 6-2 mauling of Le Havre. The former Manchester United forward put in a talismanic display for his Ligue 1 employers, but has still been informed that he “can do more” by demanding coach Roberto De Zerbi - who has explained how Greenwood can “become one of the best players in the world”.

Marseille capitalised on PSG's draw to move to the top of Ligue 1. Defending champions PSG were held to a 3-3 draw with Strasbourg in the capital on Friday night as they came from 3-1 down to rescue a point courtesy of second half strikes from Goncalo Ramos and Senny Mayulu. And L'OM will end the weekend top of the table after securing a fifth successive league win.

Olivier Giroud has revealed how Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s words inspired him to keep playing, even as he approaches 40. The French striker, who recently joined Lille on a free transfer from MLS club Los Angeles FC, said that the AC Milan legend's mindset played a key role in his decision to continue playing at the top level.

Mason Greenwood’s Marseille have reportedly made an enquiry for Real Madrid’s teenage forward Endrick, with the Brazilian growing increasingly 'frustrated' over his lack of minutes under Xabi Alonso. The 18-year-old has not featured since recovering from injury and could be open to a January loan exit as he looks to secure game time ahead of next summer’s World Cup.

Emerson Palmieri has praised Roberto De Zerbi as a “special person” with unmatched passion, revealing how the Marseille coach played a crucial role in his summer transfer from West Ham. The Italy international full-back admitted he once feared the move would collapse, but is now thriving in Ligue 1 under a manager he deeply admires.

Months after the explosive dressing-room fight that rocked Marseille and sent Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe out of the club, coach Roberto De Zerbi has said the team are better off without the duo. The pair were sold in response to the altercation that occurred after their first game of the season and De Zerbi has hinted at deeper problems with French midfielder Rabiot as he defended the club's reaction.

Marseille coach Roberto De Zerbi opened up on the hardships that shaped him, revealing how his family was forced to sell their factory during Italy’s economic crisis. Football, he says, has never been just fun- it’s been a path of responsibility, social redemption, and personal growth, shaping both his life and his coaching philosophy.

Mason Greenwood snubbed Cristiano Ronaldo for another former Manchester United team-mate when naming the best player he's worked with and chose Lionel Messi in the GOAT debate. While Greenwood briefly played alongside Ronaldo during the Portuguese striker's ill-fated second stint at Old Trafford, tensions reportedly ran high between the two as they struggled to build a successful playing relationship.

Ex-West Ham United centre-back Nayef Aguerd has spoken about the ordeal he was put through by what is thought to have been an overzealous fan. The defender was at the airport in Marseille, waiting to fly to Morocco to link up with his national team for upcoming games, when he was attacked out of nowhere.
