Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been suspended by Marseille for their Ligue 1 clash against Le Havre on Sunday. The 36-year-old striker, who ranks as the club’s second-top scorer with 13 goals across all competitions, has managed just one goal in his last nine outings as Habib Beye’s side struggles for momentum.
Marseille currently sits seventh in Ligue 1, desperately chasing European qualification. They trail sixth-placed Monaco by a single point with only two fixtures remaining. A sixth-place finish would secure a spot in the Conference League, fifth leads to the Europa League, and a top-four finish guarantees Champions League participation next season.
Sources familiar with the matter, speaking anonymously to protect relationships, have confirmed to The Athletic that Aubameyang has been suspended for a single match.
Marseille finished second in Ligue 1 last season under Roberto De Zerbi, but the Italian parted ways by mutual agreement in February and later joined Tottenham Hotspur. This campaign, they failed to advance beyond the Champions League group stage, and under Beye, they have won only one of their last six games. Their remaining matches are against 14th-placed Le Havre and European hopefuls Rennes.
