At the same time as hundreds of people await Timothy Weah at the exit of Marseille-Provence airport, OM management continues its transfer window. It is not unemployed in August when the American international will be the 6th recruit of the summer. And not the last. There is still need reinforcements to believe this latest information published in the Danish media Bold This Tuesday evening.

The Phocaeans would have views of Matt O'riley (24), Brighton midfielder. They seek an element capable of evolving in box-tobox and bringing offensively. This is the whole profile of the Danish international (4 selections) born in London, and which frequented English national teams among young people. It was once among the hopes that he chose to represent Denmark of a certain Pierre-Emile Højbjerg.

O'riley needs to revive

If OM is interested in him, it is because he needs to relaunch himself at the Seagulls where he is under contract until 2029. Arrived last summer from Celtic against 30 M € and with a promising player label on paper, the midfielder was struggling. Victim of a heavy ankle injury from his first training, he had to wait until November to compete in his first minutes, three months later.

O'riley has never managed to fill his delay on his teammates, who finished the last exercise at a solid 8th place. Replacing throughout the season, he was satisfied with crumbs (24 appearances in all competitions, 1038 minutes, 2 goals and 4 assists). It needs to relaunch itself and OM could be a suitable destination. Bold specifies still an important thing. There was no offer.
