Ten days before the resumption of Ligue 1, Olympique de Marseille has still not managed to unlock the transfer of Joel Ordonez, the Ecuadorian defender of Bruges. The media speak of a gap of 7 million between what OM (30 million) and the desire for Flemish training (37 million) in compensation for the departure of its talented stopper. On the other hand, it seems that the player is well in the start.
While Bruges moves to Salzburg in the Champions League Room Dam, Ordonez is not part of the group of 23 elements retained by Nicky Hayen. You could say that the former independent player is suffering, but images show him normally training – and probably at full power – with his comrades this Tuesday. Joel Ordonez is therefore dismissed.
Suspended medina, Ordonez on stand-by
Timothy Weah arrives Tuesday evening in Marseille. What if the American international was followed shortly by the Equatorian? Ordonez has for the moment played a single match with Bruges since the start of the season, at the opening of the Belgian championship against Genk. There is a goal before being expelled, which had not prevented his club from winning (2-1).
While waiting for the possible coming of Joel Ordonez and with the suspension of Facundo Medina for the first day of Ligue 1, Olympique de Marseille should align CJ Egan-Riley in central defense to accompany Leonardo Balerdi against Stade Rennais.
