Arrived at the end of the contract at Olympique de Marseille, Sead Kolasinac refused offers from Pablo Longoria. The reason is now known, he will sign Thursday with Atalanta Bergamo.
Released by Arsenal in January 2022, Sead Kolasinac immediately signed up with OM with a contract ending on June 30. But, despite several contacts with his agent, and renewal offers, Pablo Longoria learned with amazement that the 30-year-old Bosnian international defender had already found a club for next season. This Wednesday, several Italian journalists confirm that Sead Kolasinac is expected Thursday in Bergamo to pass his medical examination before signing his new contract with the Serie A club which will play the Europa League next season.

The defender arriving free of any contract, he will be able to receive a nice signing bonus. Enough to feed the resentment of the leaders and supporters of Olympique de Marseille, who feel cheated by Sead Kolasinac, even if according to L’Equipe the extension proposal made by Pablo Longoria did not live up to expectations. of the Bosnian player. The latter had a good season with OM, even if his missed goal against Tottenham in the Champions League haunted the Vélodrome for a long time. His departure should therefore be quickly digested, even if this departure decided without even responding to the Marseille club leaves a bitter taste.
