Marseille on the spot for Jordan Veretout?
the surprise departure of a Jorge Sampaoli since replaced by Igor Tudor on his bench, Olympique de Marseille is working on the overhaul of part of its workforce. While Steve Mandanda left for Rennes, Luan Peres was transferred to Fenerbahce and Luis Henrique was loaned to Botafogo, other players arrived, such as Nuno Tavares, Ruben Blanco, Jonathan Clauss or Luis Suarez. Marseille recruiters continue to demand their efforts by recruiting Jordan Veretout in particular. But the Frenchman is not tempted.
The tricolor international has been in the sights of President Pablo Longoria for quite some time. On the verge of leaving AS Roma, Jordan Veretout was regularly quoted on the side of Marseille and Lyon. Problem for the tricolor teams, and in particular for OM, the twenty-nine-year-old midfielder is not very keen on joining the Marseille club. According to the latest information from Foot Mercato, it is rather AC Milan who tries Veretout.
The media explains that the former Nantes player, who also passed through Saint-Étienne, “prioritizes” a departure for the Milanese club, which has just been crowned Serie A champion. An offer is even in preparation and the Rossoneri leaders should soon go definitively to tackle. Beaten this weekend on their lawn by AC Milan (0-2), OM could lose a second match against the Milanese, this time on the transfer side.
