A major English club would have made the recruitment of Rangers striker Hamza Igamane, also courted by OM, its priority at the end of the transfer window.
Among the many avenues mentioned for Elye Wahi's successor in attack, Olympique de Marseille saw that of Hamza Igamane pass. This 22-year-old Moroccan, who arrived last summer from Rabat, shone in a Glasgow Rangers team in the midst of a crisis, having already been dropped by Celtic in the title race and with finances in the red. It would be so bad at this level that the Huns would have resolved to lose several players this winter to replenish the coffers. Including Igamane, author of 13 goals and 3 assists in 26 matches.
Tottenham are hot to recruit him
According to journalist Graeme Bailey, Olympique de Marseille is far from being the only one on the Igamane file! Tottenham, who have been in great difficulty since the start of the season, would be ready to make a big financial effort to recruit him. And the Spurs have financial resources far greater than those of the Phocaeans. Newcastle, Aston Villa, Brighton, Brentford, Fulham and Everton are also interested in the Rangers player. The last week of the transfer window should see the Moroccan move again but there is a greater chance that it will be south of the Adrian Wall than in Provence…
