Very smart who can now say where Mason Greenwood will play next season. We revealed to you last week that the Marseille striker had alienated Habib Beye, with whom friction had emerged due to the player’s behavior, deemed inadequate by the Senegalese coach. Annoyed by the Englishman’s attitude during a training session, Beye then decided to cut it short and return to the locker room.

A few days later, Mason Greenwood scored against Le Havre (1-0) and celebrated his goal by hugging his coach, who rejected outright all the information released about him a few minutes later in front of the press: “When I see the lies told about me and about some of my players, when I hear that I had a clash, that I stopped training because of Mason Greenwood, that’s what saddens me today in the profession, where nothing is verified anymore. It’s the race for bad information and lies”he lamented.

Gasperini sees him as the perfect complement to Malen

Monday evening during the UNFP trophy ceremony, Mason Greenwood affirmed his desire to stay at Olympique de Marseille. “Ligue 1 is a wonderful championship. We are playing incredible matches and, for me, it is one of the best championships I have played in. I hope I can stay. » Today, however, we are certain that Marseille will not play in the Champions League next season. A parameter to take into account in the future of Greenwood. In recent weeks, Juventus Turin and Atlético de Madrid were cited as clubs likely to go for the 24-year-old striker, but according to the Gazzetta dello Sportit is AS Roma, 5th in Serie A and engaged in the race for the C1, which could quickly become active.

According to the Italian newspaper, Gasperini would have indeed asked Friedkin, owner of the club, to strengthen the offensive sector by attracting the striker from OM. The Italian coach sees Greenwood as the perfect complement to Donyell Malen. According to the Gazzetta dello SportLa Louve has reason to believe it because of his excellent relations with OM since the transfer of Robinio Vaz last winter, and thanks to the presence of Medhi Benatia, who spent time with the club during his playing career (he will leave OM this summer). Spending around fifty million euros would not be insurmountable for the Giallorossi either, who could make juicy capital gains on Manu Koné or even Soulé this summer. To be continued.
