The defeat in Nice on Sunday (2-0) only confirmed the current gaps of the Marseillais. Elye Wahi gave in Frankfurt, the offensive alternatives for Roberto de Zerbi are rare. Besides Neal Maupay, the potential centers are called Robinio Vaz and Jonathan Rowe. Without any assurance, therefore.

In recent days, OM is indeed trying to strengthen its attack, according to the very will expressed by its Italian coach. The hottest tracks hitherto explored – leading to Santiago Gimenez (Feyenoord) and Amine Gouiri (Rennes) – did not succeed and will certainly not lead. And the Olympians change their rifle.

Of Zerbi, the key of the file

One of the files followed closely now would concern the young scorer of Brighton Evan Ferguson. A player that Roberto de Zerbi took under his wing during his two seasons spent in the Premier League. A time injured in a ankle, the 20 -year -old Irish international (18 selections, four goals) plays little this season under the orders of Fabian Hürzeler, and the Phocaeans would like to rush into the breach.

President Longoria at this hour put on a loan to strengthen OM attack, especially since two defensive recruits are still expected before the end of the transfer window on February 3. According to the English press, Arsenal, West Ham and Fulham are also attentive to the case of the young talent but the Marseillais could hold the rope because of his privileged relationship with Roberto de Zerbi.
