An OM star leaves for Saudi Arabia (Official)

It’s official ! An OM star leaves the Marseille club for the Saudi Pro League.

Only six months after his arrival from Atlético de Madrid, Renan Lodi officially leaves Olympique de Marseille. The Brazilian left back officially joins Neymar at Al-Hilal, Saudi Arabia, this Wednesday.

This is a loan with an almost obligatory purchase option, for an amount greater than 20 million euros. A good deal for Marseille, which will thus replenish its coffers. We remember that OM recruited the player for a whopping 13 million euros last summer from Atlético de Madrid.

The Brazilian will therefore only have had time to play 23 matches in all competitions with the Marseille team, including 22 as a starter. Ulisses Garcia, who arrives from Young Boys Bern, will replace him in Marseille.
