Olympique Marseille coach Roberto de Zerbi is pleased with the first-half of the season from Mason Greenwood.

However, he says the former Manchester United forward can still take his game to another level.

De Zerbi said: "Greenwood still has ups and downs. He has more ups than downs, but he still has room for improvement in that. He skipped a year and a half of football. He was off for a year and a half, he started again last year at Getafe.

"It's not a club with pressure like OM. It's his second season after a fairly long break, we have to help him by expecting more from him all the time. His father too, he's someone who has a key role, who has a positive role, a good person, who also helps me to help me manage Mason.

"I try to exploit everything I can exploit to help him. His father can help him mature."
