The revolution is underway on the side of Olympique de Marseille. Qualified for the next Champions League, OM intends to strengthen its lines for next season. One of the club’s priorities will be to strengthen the midfield in order to compensate for the departure of Boubacar Kamara. Several avenues have already been studied in this direction, and it may well be that the lucky one is elected a Frenchman. For several weeks now, the name of Francois Coquelin is announced with insistence in the Marseille city.

But what does the main concerned think? Asked by West France, Francois Coquelin a confirmed “that there are many interests of French clubs” to his desire. The Villarreal midfielder even said he was flattered by all these interests and did not rule out a transfer to Ligue 1. “Afterwards, I still have a contract at Villarreal, so we will see what will happen this summer. I’m not closing any doors, we’ll see,” he said.
