One month before the third preliminary round of the Champions League, it is urgent for Marseille to recruit for this position. Pablo Longoria is active internally to fill Marcelino and according to information from Foot Mercato, the track of a French international hopeful is dug by the staff of OM on the right. The media reveals that the Olympian club is very interested in Valentin Gendrey (23), present with the Blueberries during the Euro this summer. The Lecce defender, at the end of his contract with the Italian club in June 2024, attracts covetousness since in addition to Marseille, we note that Lille, Sassuolo and Fiorentina are also interested in the same way as Strasbourg, Wolverhampton and Lazio.
Valentin Gendrey is an OM track on the right
Clubs to which Marseille has nothing to envy. These numerous signs of interest show that OM will not have to delay if they want to win the day in the Valentin Gendrey case. Undisputed holder in Lecce last season (37 games, 4 assists), the native of La Garenne-Colombes will be spoiled for choice for the rest of his career. In Marseille, we can see ourselves betting on a French international hopeful to double the position of a safe bet in the person of Jonathan Clauss. It remains to be seen if this track will be deepened by the Olympian board in the days to come.
