As one of the OM executives, Jonathan Clauss in turn was pushed out.
No one lingers in Marseille anymore. While a way out is about to be found for Vitinha; while this same door is wide open for players such as Pape Gueye and Ismaïla Sarr, Jonathan Clauss is in turn one of the Olympians likely to fly away this winter.
Less influential, efficient and inspired than he has been in recent months, the French international is not spared from internal criticism at OM, and the words of the day from President Pablo Longoria regarding “ mentality ” And ” commitment » demanded in the Marseille city are addressed to him in particular. Doubtful on Saturday evening after the premature exit of his right side against Monaco, Gennaro Gattuso himself seemed to question the hitherto impeccable state of mind of the former Lensois.
A cautious entourage
Behind the scenes of the Commanderie, some believe that the person concerned is sparing himself a little too much this season with a view to Euro 2024. Also L’Equipe assures this Monday evening that a transfer by the end of the transfer window, this Thursday 1er February at midnight, cannot be ruled out. Galatasaray, which has just sold Sacha Boey to Bayern, would have been probed in particular.
The timing, a bit hasty, is naturally striking. Including in the player’s entourage, as relayed by the sports daily mentioned: “ Jonathan will not leave this winter, unless an offer that cannot be refused arrives », we specify. At the end of his contract in June 2025, Jonathan Clauss is clearly no longer an element of the future in the eyes of Marseille leaders. If he doesn’t leave this winter, his departure could be concluded next summer. With a rating of 15 million euros.
