In lack of solutions on the sides of its defense, Olympique de Marseille will try to recruit side. The Marseille club does not refrain from targeting high-level players, even if it means finding themselves in the fight with competitors of the caliber of Manchester City, reigning European champion.
Serious things will soon begin at Olympique de Marseille. Once the appointment of coach Marcelino has been confirmed, president Pablo Longoria will be able to launch his recruitment, taking into account the preferences of his new coach. We can expect to see the leader strengthen the sides of the defense, two positions where the Marseille club finds itself in difficulty.
OM will recruit full-backs
The end of Issa Kaboré’s loan, returned to Manchester City, should force management to recruit a right-back. Ditto on the other lane where Nuno Tavares, on loan from Arsenal, did not give satisfaction. Note that the versatile Sead Kolasinac has still not extended as his contract expires. This left-back position necessarily represents an emergency for Olympique de Marseille, which does not forbid anything on this file.

According to information from Foot Mercato, the recent third in Ligue 1 does not rule out any operation, whether it is a free player, a loan or a transfer. The Marseillais are also willing to fight with top names for high level targets. The proof, our colleagues reveal an Olympian interest in the left side of Fulham Antonee Robinson (25 years old). A particularly complex track, even already doomed to failure for Olympique de Marseille.
We are indeed talking about a safe bet in the Premier League, the price of which should put Pablo Longoria out of the race. Especially since Manchester City, AC Milan and Inter Milan would also be on the spot. Finally, we learn that Fulham would like to extend the American international currently under contract until 2024. We know the skills of the Marseille president in the transfer window. But this time, it looks too complicated.
