Olympique de Marseille should still be active on the transfer market this winter.
After a mixed first part of the season, Olympique de Marseille must move up a gear. The Marseille club hopes to achieve a return phase that lives up to its ambitions, with the objective of finishing in the top 4 to secure a qualifying place for the Champions League.
As always since the arrival of Pablo Longoria, these strictly sporting considerations will be linked to movements in the transfer window. The Spanish leader has demonstrated his ability to make big moves on the transfer market, including in winter. The January window should be no exception to this good habit.
OM rushes towards an international
This Monday, the daily Ouest-France thus indicated that Olympique de Marseille had positioned itself on Nemanja Matic. At the age of 35, the Serbian international would like to leave Stade Rennais, where his performances have not been unanimously appreciated since his arrival last summer. However, two questions arise in this matter. The first concerns competition, since in addition to OM, Olympique Lyonnais would also have ticked the name of the former Manchester United player. The second is linked to the player profile. If Matic’s experience no longer needs to be demonstrated, do the characteristics of the Serbian environment meet the needs identified by Gennaro Gattuso? The next few days should provide some answers.
