Transfers: the Sampoli – Longoria duo ready to give a nice Christmas present to the Marseillais!
Despite being placed under supervision during the transfer window, with a supervision of the wage bill, OM could well be the great promoter of the transfer market in Ligue 1!
Determined to do everything he can to strengthen himself in January and strengthen his chances of finishing on the podium, Jorge Sampaoli is in constant contact with Pablo Longoria.
The Argentine coach intends to use all the possibilities within his reach to see reinforcements land on the Canebière. And the one who installed OM in second place at the truce (ahead of Nice on goal difference, but with a late match), could well see his wishes come true.
Arturo Vidal, the Christmas present to the Marseillais?
Already approached last summer, Arturo Vidal has always remained a priority for Jorge Sampaoli. According to LIKE, the Argentinian technician even dreams of making the player he knew when he led the Chilean team (between 2012 and 2016) a wonderful Christmas present!
A gift for him, who appreciates the energy of the player, but also for all of Marseille. Out of reach in August, the 34-year-old midfielder will end his contract next June and has become an accessible target.
After making it clear that he could land at OM next July, provided the club qualifies for the Champions League, Arturo Vidal could arrive earlier, to help the team achieve their goal.
OM, for their part, should have two birds with one stone, starting in January, and pushing back the South American candidates, ready to rush on the player.
We think in particular of the Argentines of Boca Juniors and the Brazilian champions Atlético Mineiro, who have already made approaches for a transfer at the end of the season.
According to our information, OM could take advantage of the tens of millions that the departure of Boubacar Kamara could bring, to offer two or three to Inter, ready to open the door to the Chilean.
Anthony Martial offered by MU to recover Boubacar Kamara
The possible transfer of the young Marseille midfielder (or defender) is indeed at the heart of OM’s transfer window. At the end of the contract, the 22-year-old is acclaimed in the Premier League.
Pablo Longoria, who failed to convince him to extend, hopes to take advantage of the distance duel between Newcastle and Manchester United, to recover ten million from the month of January.
The two clubs (Newcastle for maintenance, MU to find the top 4) want Kamara right away and are ready to write a big check. In England, there was a proposal for 10 million euros from the Magpies.
Manchester United, who already have the clear advantage of playing in the Champions League, in another: his name is Anthony Martial. Indeed, to convince OM to sell him Kamara, MU would be ready to lend Anthony Martial, while agreeing to continue to pay part of his salary! A winning deal for Pablo Longoria who would still like to recover a sum of money in compensation for the departure of his player.
