The OM transfer window is in full swing. A lot of movement is currently taking place, whether in terms of arrivals or departures. On Sunday evening, for example, the Phocéens completed the recruitment of their fourth transferee in the person of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (Tottenham).
Marseille and its leaders do not intend to stop there. Roberto De Zerbi, the team’s coach, has notably requested the arrival of two other midfielders. In addition, he is still looking to afford a goalkeeper since Pau Lopez is no longer part of the staff’s plans. The Spaniard should also quickly bounce back on the Como side.
OM prefers youth to experience
Among the names studied internally for this important position, there is that of Wojciech Szczesny, the experienced Juventus goalkeeper. The information comes from L’Equipe. The latter is looking for a new challenge and a stay at the Vélodrome would not have displeased him. Despite his CV, he ultimately did not convince the Olympian board. For what reason? Because he is considered too old (34 years old).
Marseille wants to sign a young goalkeeper who is likely to develop within their ranks. The Spaniard Alvaro Valles was long hoped for but this option was finally abandoned. Now, the priority is Filip Jorgensen (22 years old). The Dane is under contract with Villarreal and the Spanish club is currently too demanding regarding the transfer fee. To be continued.
