Olympique de Marseille has moved up a gear on the transfer market.
Hurry up. Two weeks after the induction of Marcelino in his coaching costume, Olympique de Marseille must move up a gear after a surprisingly timid start to the transfer window, marked by the only notable arrival of Geoffrey Kondogbia. The prospect of playing in the preliminary round of the Champions League prompted Pablo Longoria to accelerate. This should materialize with the announcement of a new reinforcement in the coming hours.
As announced this Thursday morning by several Spanish sources, Olympique de Marseille will secure the services of Renan Ledi. The team confirmed this transfer at the start of the evening. 25-year-old Renan Ledi is a Brazilian left-back defender from Atlético de Madrid. He had not played with the Colchoneros last season since he was loaned to Nottingham Forest, a historic British football club which was making its return to the Premier League.
Mercato OM: a wave of arrivals expected in the coming weeks
The arrival of Renan Lodi announces an intense period which should see OM strengthen significantly. While this transfer would be estimated at 13 million euros, the next files will concern the offensive sector. Pending Alexis Sanchez’s decision after the extension offer made to the Chilean, Pablo Longoria has activated his network to attract a player capable of bringing added value in attack. An agreement in principle has reportedly been reached with Senegalese striker Iliman Ndiaye.
