The Olympique de Marseille players resumed training on Monday, before Marcelino’s presentation on Tuesday. But it is an absentee, Alexis Sanchez, who focuses all the attention of OM supporters. The Chilean striker is no longer under contract.
The date of June 30 has passed, and despite negotiations that began weeks ago, the Chilean striker did not extend his contract with Olympique de Marseille where he arrived as a superstar last year. After a successful season, Alexis Sanchez has his destiny in his hands, and so far he hasn’t accepted the terms offered by Pablo Longoria. Result, his former teammates are back at the Commandery, while he is still in Chile where he is having a good time while waiting for a decision to be made. Fernando Felicevich, the striker’s agent, has come to Marseille several times in recent months, and again in recent days, he negotiated with the leaders of OM, but in vain. Because the representative of El Nino Maravilla knows that he has in his possession an offer which financially is the best ever had by Alexis Sanchez.
Alexis Sanchez is still hesitating about his future
The idol of the Vélodrome has indeed been contacted by a club of the Saudi Pro League, and inevitably, the offer which has been transmitted to him is up to the debauchery of the financial means implemented by the country of the Middle East. . According to Sébastien Denis, Alexis Sanchez is offered a salary close to one million euros per month, almost four times more than what he earned last season at Olympique de Marseille. Something to think about the author of 11 goals in Ligue 1 in the jersey of OM, who has not yet accepted this Saudi proposal, proof that he is thinking all the same. On the side of Pablo Longoria and Javier Ribalta, Marseille’s football director, we are firmly convinced that if the Marseille club offers him a slightly increased salary for one or two additional seasons, and above all a real sporting challenge thanks to ambitions revised upwards, then the former Inter player could say banco. The arrival of Marcelino in place of Igor Tudor and the signing of Geoffrey Kondogbia being two more assets.

On social networks, Olympique de Marseille supporters are holding their breath, because inevitably, if Alexis Sanchez does not return, then the leaders will once again have to rack their brains to find him a replacement likely to arouse as much enthusiasm. . And it is an understatement to say that it will not be easy, the Chilean international having won unanimous support at the Vélodrome, which had not happened for a very long time. The ball is now in Alexis Sanchez’s camp, and we could find out more on Tuesday since Pablo Longoria will be at a press conference with his new coach.
