Disappointing since his arrival at OM last summer, Elye Wahi is not sure of continuing the adventure in Provence. The French striker is notably tracked by Galatasaray, who makes him their plan B behind Georges Mikautadze.
Author of three goals in Ligue 1 since the start of the season, Elye Wahi started the championship as a starter at Olympique de Marseille before quickly being relegated to the bench by Neal Maupay. The beginnings of the former Lensois, recruited for 30 million euros including bonus six months ago, are laborious. The French international hopeful is struggling to meet Roberto De Zerbi's expectations and his future is already on hold during this winter transfer window. In the event of a very big offer which would allow it to land on its feet in January, OM will not retain Elye Wahi.
In today's edition, Provence confirms that the Olympian number nine is on the cards of West Ham, Bournemouth and Arsenal, who are looking for an attacking player to fill the serious injury of Gabriel Jesus, victim of a ruptured cruciate ligament. Another courtier should be taken seriously for Elye Wahi: Galatasaray. The Turkish club has the means this winter and absolutely wants to bring in a striker. The Marseille striker is well targeted by the Istanbul club… but he is for the moment the plan B of the “Gala”, who still dreams of Georges Mikautadze.
-Wahi's future influenced by the Mikautadze case
The local media affirms that the number one objective of Turkish leaders is still to convince Lyon to sell them the 23-year-old Georgian striker. On the other hand, if the Rhone club were to prove inflexible by refusing to part with Mikautadze, then Galatasaray could fall back on Elye Wahi. But in the case of the former MHSC scorer, will the current leader of the Turkish Süper Lig be ready to meet the expectations of Olympique de Marseille? We can doubt it for the moment because Pablo Longoria will not break below 25 million euros excluding bonus for Elye Wahi. Present at a press conference on Friday, Roberto De Zerbi was evasive about the future of his 22-year-old striker. ” We'll see. For the moment, there is nothing » simply brushed aside the Italian coach, who will still have to do without his injured attacker for the Strasbourg reception this Sunday.
