Olympique de Marseille has multiplied the tracks since the start of the summer transfer window. Three players have already joined the sky and white in recent weeks: CJ Egan-Riley (22) and Angel Gomes (24), who arrived free, and Facundo Medina, torn from RC Lens. What make Roberto de Zerbi happy.
“We took two very strong young players, CJ Egan-Riley (22) and Angel Gomes (24), free. These are two masterpieces of Benatia. And Medina, who is the player you need for the velodrome »recently told them about the Marseille coach.
A fourth player would be very close to following. Exiled to Saudi Arabia since last summer, Pierre-Aubameyang would indeed be very close to returning to OM, only a year after his departure. The Gabonese is expected in the coming hours in Marseille to settle the last details of his arrival.
Neymar seduced by OM
But to believe the Spanish site Fichajes.net, the Olympian leaders would have another big name in mind. And what a name! OM would indeed be in discussions with the entourage of Neymar, returned to Brazil a year ago after his departure from Saudi Arabia and eager to find Europe for the next World Cup.
Imagining Neymar in the Marseille jersey is difficult to say the least. As much because of a profile which does not fit badly with the philosophy of Roberto de Zerbi as for his past as a Parisian player or for his service states for two years. However, the Marseille management would be ready to try it and to make the financial efforts necessary to attract the Brazilian star, still according to Fichajes. For its part, the interest of the Marseille club and the ambitions displayed by OM would not leave it insensitive.
