In search of reinforcements in midfield, OM are close to registering the arrival of Geoffrey Kondogbia. At the same time, the Marseille club is studying the Denis Zakaria file, on loan to Chelsea this season from Juventus Turin.

For several weeks, Olympique de Marseille has been studying the track leading to Denis Zakaria, under contract with Juventus Turin despite his loan this season to Chelsea. The 26-year-old Swiss international is not part of Massimiliano Allegri’s plans and should pack his bags during the next transfer window. A boon for Pablo Longoria, who quickly advanced his pawns in this case given the good relations he has with the leaders of Juventus Turin.

At first sight, Denis Zakaria was rather enthusiastic about joining a French club qualified for the preliminary round of the Champions League but against all expectations, this file did not accelerate. On the contrary even since OM have moved forward to recruit Geoffrey Kondogbia in the same position and nothing says that the Denis Zakaria track will be deepened by Pablo Longoria and his right arm Javier Ribalta. While the Marseille track is on stand-by, Foot Mercato tells us that a second French club could take the opportunity to try to win the bet.

Zakaria in the sights of RC Lens

This is RC Lens, whose midfielder and captain Seko Fofana is on the way to Saudi Arabia for a check of around 40 million euros. The specialized media affirms that the Swiss is on the RC Lens shortlist but has not yet decided on his future destination while the Sang et Or also have Habib Diarra and Andy Diouf in the sights at this midfielder position. ground. The idea of ​​the northern management is to recruit at least one midfielder, or even two in the event of Seko Fofana’s departure during this summer transfer window. Now remains to be seen if Denis Zakaria will be one of them.
