Established for the first time since his arrival at OM, Valentin Carboni only played one half against Angers (1-1). Highly anticipated, the Argentinian midfielder more than disappointed the supporters. And the media…
Loaned by Inter Milan for a season, Valentin Carboni had not yet had his chance at OM until now. Ends of matches, entries into play not easy for this 19-year-old midfielder whose merits the Italian press praised last season. A very successful loan to Monza and an experience that he is trying to repeat at OM. But the transplant does not take.
The Team cuts it in two
Starting against Angers, for the first time this season, Valentin Carboni had the opportunity to show himself and make us forget the sad performances of Amine Harit. Failure… The newspaper L’Equipe gives it the worst rating, 3 out of 10. And the comments are clear: “Preferred over Harit, the Argentinian had a very disappointing first start, without rhythm and without ideas. Too slow, too passive, he suffered from events. A shot off target (45th) and a warning (45th + 5), here is the meager assessment of the playmaker, before being replaced at the break by Rowe (46th) ».
An overpriced purchase option
Valentin Carboni has had a complicated start with OM. And for the supporters, his fate has already been cast. Loaned for one year with a purchase option for 36 million euros, the Argentinian has no chance of staying. The price of his transfer is clearly overvalued compared to its true value.
