OM Mercato: Marseille challenges OGC Nice for Justin Kluivert
The summer transfer window will be eventful on the side of Olympique de Marseille. After a great season, marked by a qualification for the next Champions League, OM want to breathe new life into their squad this summer. The Marseille club wants to strengthen in several positions. Especially in attack where Arkadiusz Milik is not certain to stay, while Bamba Dieng risk of being sold in the event of tempting offers. For OM, it will therefore be important to expand this sector of play in order to anticipate these possible departures. Several offensive avenues have already been explored internally.
If the names of Muhammad Ali Cho at Angers SCO or Jovane Cabral from Sporting Portugal have been mentioned lately, the Marseille management would also have another striker in their sights. According to the latest information from the media II TimeOM have set their sights on Justin Kluivert (23 years). The Dutch right winger is coming off a successful loan to OGC Nice, who want to keep him this summer. But the leaders of Nice are struggling so far to exercise their purchase option set at 14 million euros by AS Roma. They would have led to negotiations with the Romans to try to lower this price, but the intrusion of OM in this file risks compromising the Aiglons’ plans.
OM Mercato: AS Monaco is also going for Justin Kluivert
Note that Olympique de Marseille is an old contender for Justin Kluivert. The Olympians had already tried to recruit him during the last summer transfer window, without success. They therefore intend to return to the charge for his signature with the hope of having more success this time. Moreover, OM are not the only Ligue 1 club interested in the versatile profile of the former RB Leipzig player. The source assures that AS Monaco would also be in ambush on this track. OGC Nice is therefore warned. The Niçois, in pole position on this file, will have to act quickly to complete his final transfer at the risk of seeing Justin Kluivert take the direction of another French club.
