Kalou tips Gallardo to shine
Reuters, Paris
Paris St Germain forward Bonaventure Kalou believes Argentine playmaker Marcelo Gallardo will be the team's key player when the Ligue 1 strugglers travel to arch-rivals Olympique Marseille on Sunday. "His arrival is a good thing for the club. He is kind of player we were missing in the squad," the Ivory Coast international told OM's Web site on Saturday. The former Argentine international, who played in Ligue 1 with Monaco from 1999 to 2003, joined the Paris side from River Plate during the January transfer window. Fourth-placed Marseille, who trail third-placed RC Lens by one point, will have an eye on the top three, four days after beating Olympique Lyon 2-1 in a French Cup last-16 tie. "We come here to bring something back home but it will be hard," said Kalou. "Marseille are one of the most dangerous teams of the moment."
