OM would work to strengthen the flanks of its defense this winter. With a prestige track under study.
After causing a sensation during the off-season by cracking an XXL transfer window including football stars Adrien Rabiot, Mason Greenwood and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, OM could well hit the headlines again this winter. With a real defensive project to carry out.
With a transalpine connection cheerfully nourished by president Pablo Longoria and his sports advisor Medhi Benatia – without of course taking into account the origins of coach Roberto De Zerbi – it is in Serie A that the Marseille club would prospect to strengthen its rear. In the corridors we hear where the cost of Amir Murillo and Ulysse Garcia may turn out to be a little tight.
End of contract in June
While Quentin Merlin is called upon to resume his place on the left side, the imbalance is felt more on the right flank, and this is precisely where the Olympian management intends to act in the weeks to come. With a target already clearly defined if we are to believe information from the Italians at Calcio Mercato.
Captain of AC Milan, Davide Calabria, right back by trade, would be a priority for OM, who could win with an offer of 3 to 4 million euros, underlines the transalpine media. The 27-year-old Azurro international has played little this season, weighed down by two muscle injuries which allowed Emerson Royal to take over. His transfer is all the more possible as the person concerned reaches the end of his contract next June.
