OM: A huge blow in preparation for this summer!
Despite his physical seeds, Fofana remains considered one of the best in his post when he is in full possession of his means. For OM, its arrival would constitute an XXL reinforcement … provided that it will reach a financial agreement with Chelsea. Especially since some observers warn: returning to your training club often exposes to entourage and excess local pressure traps. Extreme vigilance will therefore be necessary to avoid a disappointing scenario.

Everything is not yet played: to hope to attract Wesley Fofana, Marseille must imperatively validate its qualification in the Champions League. With the victory against Brest and the prospect of a shock in Lille, the mission is far from impossible. But even in the event of a final top 3, it will still be necessary to convince Chelsea to facilitate the deal, in particular on the management of a substantial salary.
OM wants to hit hard, and Wesley Fofana embodies this desire to strengthen the team with ambitious and symbolic players. By succeeding in this bet, Marseille would send a clear message to its competitors and its supporters. The transfer window has not yet opened its doors, but in the offices of the Commandery, the effervescence is already total.
