While the eyes turn to the replacement file of Elye Wahi, Olympique de Marseille pushed its pawns concerning the signing of a defensive midfielder who evolves in Serie A.
The winter transfer window will end on February 3, and by then Pablo Longoria and Mehdi Benatia will not sleep much. Even if it is the possible coming from Amine Gouiri who arouses many comments in recent hours, the two leaders of Olympique de Marseille do not only work on this operation, as spectacular as it is. Because to believe Nicolo Schira, famous Italian journalist specializing in the transfer window, OM officials have just taken a first step towards Verona about Reda Belahyane. The young Moroccan international defensive midfielder is closely followed by Roberto de Zerbi, and Olympique de Marseille has entered action, reveals our Transalpine colleague this Saturday, confirming in passing what was said for weeks about the interest of OM for the player revealed in the jersey of the OGC Nice.
On the eve of the shock between the gym and OM, and a year after the departure of Reda Belahyane de Nice for the Hellas Verona for 500,000 euros, Olympique de Marseille is preparing a first offer that will quickly be submitted to the Curse 18th club From Serie A. According to Nicolo Schira, on the side of Verona, we demand 15 million euros to let Belahyana go during this winter transfer window, but Olympique de Marseille will probably not go to this amount. In this case, OM could however be opposed frontally to a European monster, since the Italian press reveals Chelsea's interest in the Moroccan international midfielder. And as we know, the blues are not the type to quibble when they want a player. But the Marseille club has often managed to switch in the right direction of files that did not seem to be won in advance.
