It would have been difficult to imagine this rumor two weeks ago… And yet, the future of Jonathan Clauss at Olympique de Marseille has been called into question in recent hours. The Foot Mercato website indicated that the management of the Marseille club would not close the door to the French international in the event of a satisfactory offer.

Jonathan Clauss would be criticized in particular for being too cautious during his meetings with OM, in order to preserve himself for the deadlines with the France team. In this context, can the right-back really leave Marseille during this winter window?
