OM Mercato: Luis Henrique, a deal in preparation with Lazio

Recruited against a check for 8 million euros in September 2020, Luis Henrique (20 years old) still does not justify the amount paid for his room at Olympique de Marseille. Since his arrival, he has struggled to adapt to the Marseille city and does not really fit into the plans of his trainer Jorge Sampaoli. The proof, Luis Henrique has only started seven times in Ligue 1 this season. This lack of play reinforces the idea of ​​his future departure.

In great difficulty under the orders of Jorge Sampaoli, the young Brazilian striker could then seek more playing time and experience away from the Velodrome. Moreover, it is not the suitors who are lacking to welcome him. According to information from TuttoMercatoWebLazio Rome is very interested in the profile of Luis Henrique. The Roman Coach, Maurizio Sarriwould be a great admirer of the young Marseille striker and would like to have him under his command next season.

OM does not necessarily close the door on his departure

The Italian media specifies that Lazio Rome recently inquired about the availability of Luis Henrique and would be ready to make an offer for his transfer. It remains to be seen whether it will be a loan with option or a dry transfer. In any case, for his part, the management of OM should not put too many obstacles for his departure. She could therefore receive a nice check on a probable departure of the young Brazilian right winger.

Author of disappointing performances the few times he has started this season, Luis Henrique will not last forever in Marseille and will approach the exit door. And in the event of departure, OM will have to replace him with a more efficient player in this position. Several offensive avenues have already been explored internally.
