Well on track to transfer Nigerian Akor Adams to Sevilla FC, Montpellier should compensate for his departure with the arrival of a new attacker. The Hérault club, which denied the Wissam Ben Yedder lead, will instead try to recover its former scorer Andy Delort, currently in Algeria.
The Montpellier transfer window will come alive. In economic difficulty, the current red lantern in Ligue 1 needs to sell. Which explains the imminent departure of Akor Adams. The Nigerian striker, much less visible this season, should take charge of Sevilla FC as part of a transfer worth 5.5 million euros. We suspect that the Hérault club will not reinvest the entire amount collected. However, Montpellier will try to recruit a new center forward via a reduced-price operation.
Let the detractors of the MHSC rest assured, the lucky one will not be Wissam Ben Yedder. Highly criticized because of this rumor, President Laurent Nicollin categorically denied any interest in the French international weighed down by legal proceedings. According to L'Equipe, Montpellier is more interested in its former scorer Andy Delort (33 years old). This is not the first time that the Franco-Algerian has been announced as returning to Hérault. At almost every transfer window, his name reappears in MHSC news. And this even if his departure at the end of summer 2021 had provoked the anger of supporters and Laurent Nicollin.
-Delort and Montpellier reconciled
« I had a hard time with the departure of Andy Delortconfided the president of Montpellier to the After magazine last October. I would have preferred that when we resumed, he would have come to see me. Everything can be heard, everything can be listened to. But his timing was bad. I told him so. » Since then, the two men have made peace. The striker who joined Mouloudia d'Algiers last September is described as Montpellier's priority. Coach Jean-Louis Gasset believes he is capable of leading the team to maintenance. A challenge which does not leave Andy Delort indifferent even though discussions have not progressed at the moment.
