. The Brazilian winger should arrive in the Marseille city on Thursday, at 12 noon, to pass his medical examination and sign his contract.

The amount of the transaction would amount to 30 million euros, to which could be added an additional five million in the form of a bonus. On the principle of a fixed base, the 25 -year -old should therefore become the most expensive player in OM history.

Jennifer Mendelewitsch believes that this is a rather logical price in terms of the market. “We are talking about a player who performed, who played the Champions League and who had offers. Honestly, it may be a little overpayed, you can debate its quality, but for the Dutch market, it doesn't shock me ”said the players' agent on RMC.

Peaceão, an extraordinary potential

A recruiter, under cover of anonymity, underlines that Igor Peaceão will have to assume this status. “It is already strong, but it can be much more, he imagines in the columns of Provence. Today, to compare to another summer target of OM, I tend to think that Noa Lang is a little above, but Peaceão can clearly overcome it if it is resistant to the pressure of its transfer. »»

Trained at Coritiba FC, the new Olympian recruit arrived at Feyenoord Rotterdam in 2022. Author of 39 goals in 129 matches played with the Dutch club, all competitions combined, the pocket winger (1m68) was also asked by Leeds.
