Forced to upset his workforce ten days from the end of the transfer window while the Rennes altercation between Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe fractured the locker room, OM promises to animate more than reason in the last days of the summer market. With no less than five recruits expected now.
In addition to a midfielder who could be Ismaël Bennacer or Marc Casado, a left side that could be Kostas Tsimikas and now a number 10 – a role that could ultimately be entrusted to Angel Gomes – the Marseillais are still looking for an axial winger and defender to strengthen the workforce for the Champions League.
As for this last post, the track leading to the Ecuadorian rock of Bruges Joel Ordonez remains current despite the inflexibility of the Belgian club, which requests more than 30 million euros. But Pablo Longoria and Medhi Benatia seriously study now Plan B that Benjamin Pavard would embody, according to L'Equipe this Thursday.
Fofana, a boon to grasp for OM
Versatile, capable of evolving in the center of the rearguard as on the right flank, the 29-year-old tricolor international has more experience-in C1 in particular-and the advantage of a price a more accessible since Inter would be inclined to release it against around 20 million euros if we believe the transalpine press.
Another file again on the Table of the Marseille direction: that of Malick Fofana. While the Lille Edon Zhegrova has come closer to Juventus these days, the Olympians, with the possible sales of Adrien Rabiot and Jonathan Rowe would have more latitude to attack and invest the nearly 40 million euros required by OL for the 20-year-old Belgian prodigy. At this hour, despite the alleged interest of big names in European football, only Everton made an offer to the Lyonnais. Without convincing the player himself, however.
