OM are making a string of signings this off-season, with the official signing of Canadian international defender Derek Cornelius this Sunday, poached from Malmö for around 4 million euros.
Still in the defensive sector, the file of the French Espoirs international Kiliann Sildillia is progressing quickly and well if we are to believe the sources close to the club – the current right-back of Thierry Henry’s Blues at the Olympics pushing to join Marseille while negotiations have well and truly begun with Fribourg.
In view of the performances of the Olympians during the preparation matches, the main project nevertheless remains offensive, where the only one Mason Greenwood seems for the moment promised a starting place. The Argentinian leader Valentin Carboni arrives precisely to compete with Amine Harit in the construction of the game. In return for a paid loan from Inter.
Nketiah, yes but…
Another target that has become a priority these days: Youssoufa Moukoko, who ” only wants to join Olympique de Marseille “, according to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano. Pablo Longoria is looking to complete the loan with an option to buy of the 19-year-old German-Cameroonian winger with BvB as soon as possible.
Finally, the Phocéens have not abandoned the trail of Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah, for whom an offer of 27 million euros has just been refused. The Gunners are reportedly demanding 35 million euros, plus a percentage on resale – demands that were too high for the taste of the Marseille management until now. But the player himself already has an agreement with OM.
