In the demanding Marseille club, the player of the Democratic Republic of the Congo national team was not late to win over the audience. A regular defender, eye-catching, technically good, and a goalscorer. In addition, Chancel Mbemba is undoubtedly, together with Chilean club player Alexis Sanchez, the best player in Olympique de Marseille this season.

By moving from Lorient to Nice during the current season, the 23-year-old “super eagle” needed time to adapt, but he did not lose his effectiveness in front of goal. Nice intend to make the Nigerian one of the leaders of their squad for their domestic and continental ambitions, and that is good for them, as they are ready to take the big step.
