OM wish to part ways with several defenders who have become undesirable this winter. Lilian Brassier is notably pushed towards the exit by the Olympian club and there is no shortage of courtiers for the former Brestois.
Recruited last summer as part of a loan with an automatic purchase option for 11 million euros, Lilian Brassier is already leaving for Olympique de Marseille. The 25-year-old French defender did not convince Roberto De Zerbi at all during his first weeks in Provence and his playing time has been reduced to nothing for several matches. Murillo, Balerdi, Kondogbia but also Cornelius are ahead of him in the hierarchy of central defenders and the idea of a departure was accepted by all parties concerned in January.
Targeted by Rennes and Nice in Ligue 1, the former Brest captain also has courtiers abroad since Villarreal and Leicester are interested. But according to the information from Sky Sportsconfirmed by Foot Marketthe Bundesliga is also in the running to recover a player to revive. This is how in recent hours, Borussia Mönchengladbach took the temperature with OM and Lilian Brassier to find out the conditions of a potential transfer.
Lilian Brassier on the sidelines in the Bundesliga
The current eighth in the Bundesliga is very interested in the Olympian player in order to compensate for the departure of Nico Elvedi or Ko Itakura, two players likely to pack their bags during this winter transfer window. In Germany, a second team is interested, namely Wolfsburg. Suffice to say that there is no shortage of interest for Lilian Brassier and the offer so hoped for by OM could come from the Bundesliga, a championship which is crazy about French players and which has especially managed to make them shine for around ten years now. It now remains to be seen whether this destination will be the one favored by Lilian Brassier, who can no longer imagine himself in Marseille where the adventure will therefore have been short-lived for him.
