For a few days, Leonardo Bonucci has been announced as a possible reinforcement for Olympique de Marseille. But the Italian star has his say, and precisely the Juventus player was very clear.
Under contract with Juventus until 2024, Leonardo Bonucci is in a strong position at the start of this transfer market. Even if he is 36 years old, and comes out of a bad season with the Old Lady (16 games played in Serie A), due in particular to physical problems, the Italian European champion is necessarily a very followed player. The defender being likely to be transferred in the coming weeks, the name of Olympique de Marseille had been mentioned. Tuttosport, the Turin sports daily, had put OM at the top of the list in the event of the departure of Leonardo Bonucci from Juventus, recalling that the club led by Pablo Longoria seriously needed at least one defensive reinforcement this summer. In addition, Marseille will play the Champions League or at worst the Europa League, which is a great sporting challenge for the experienced Italian player, used to this kind of fight. But, the latter has his say and he did.
Bonucci only has one club in mind, it’s not OM

Having learned of all these rumors that sent him away from Juventus and more precisely to Olympique de Marseille, Leonardo Bonucci used his Instagram account to respond. No need to write anything, the Juve defender simply put the Bianconeri logo in story, in order to warn once and for all that he intended to complete his contract in 2024. Once his contract with Juventus ends, the Italian international defender has already warned that he will almost certainly put an end to his career, six years after returning to Juve after his highly commented spell at AC Milano. If OM really wanted to recruit Leonardo Bonucci, we will have to think of something else.
