While they were supposed to slim down in his sector, the Marseille leaders could soon enlist an additional defensive midfielder
They were five on the spot and soon there could be six. The Marseille midfielder is on track to welcome another element by the end of the transfer window. This reinforcement could be the former Brest Haris Belkebla.
Longoria wants a ninth recruit!
Belkebla has been free since the end of his contract with the Finistère team last June. He has been patient waiting for a new project and his patience is about to be rewarded. According to Insider Marwan Belkacem, Pablo Longoria thinks very seriously of him as the ninth defector of his team. Discussions were held with the player’s representatives last week at the Commanderie.
If he is recruited by Marseille, Belkebla will still whip to win a starting place. Currently, Jordan Veretout and Geoffrey Kondogbia are favored by the coach. And behind, there is Mattéo Guendouzi, Valentin Rongier and Pape Gueye. Suffice to say that the Algerian midfielder will have to jostle to earn his starting spot.
The arrival of Belkebla at OM will please the Algerian community in Marseille. In the history of the club, there have been quite a few Fennecs who have passed through the Vélodrome (Kadir, Arrache, Omerani, Belmadi) but very few have managed to do well there.
