Despite the desire to keep Arkadiusz Milik for next season, Juventus Turin should not exercise the option to buy his loan. The Old Lady finds herself faced with financial problems. Not enough to thwart the plans of Olympique de Marseille, which has other assets to get rid of its unwanted striker.
Good news for Olympique de Marseille. Thanks to the maintenance obtained in La Liga, Almeria must exercise the automatic purchase option for striker Luis Suarez. The Colombian loaned last winter will recover eight million euros for his transfer. An operation that President Pablo Longoria would like to reproduce with Arkadiusz Milik.

The Pole had been loaned to Juventus Turin during the previous summer transfer window, with a purchase option set at seven million euros. A few months later, the Old Lady, rather satisfied with the performance of her rookie, who has seven goals and an assist in Serie A, would see herself keeping her for next season.
But the Turin club finds itself facing serious financial problems, and without qualifying for the Champions League because of its 10-point penalty in the league. The Bianconeri should therefore not exercise the option to buy Arkadiusz Milik. But the bad news shouldn’t bring Pablo Longoria down. Indeed, the boss of Olympique de Marseille notes that his center forward under contract until 2025 has other courtiers.
Milik on the side
The Corriere dello Sport recently cited Eintracht Frankfurt, Newcastle, Burnley and especially Lazio Rome among the contenders for the Marseillais, whose price would be set at seven-eight million euros. Still in Italy, the media Il Messaggero confirms the pole position of Lazio Rome on this issue, even if the Roman club has various alternatives like Giovanni Simeone. Suffice to say that Olympique de Marseille has what it takes to avoid the return of its undesirable to the recovery.
