Looking for a right back, OM tried to bring in Kiliann Sildillia last summer. The transfer was unsuccessful, but the Marseille club is still determined to recruit the French international hopeful this winter.
Last summer, Olympique de Marseille completely rebuilt its squad. At almost every position, a new player has arrived. However, this is not the case for the right-back position, where the departure of Jonathan Clauss has not been compensated since Pol Lirola and Amir Murillo are in competition, without really convincing Roberto De Zerbi. It is precisely because no one stands out that OM is still very active on the Kiliann Sildillia file with a view to the next winter transfer window. Indeed, Sky Sports Germany tells us this weekend that Olympique de Marseille is one of the clubs following with the greatest attention the situation of the French international hopefuls, silver medalist at the Olympic Games this summer.
Under contract until June 2026, Kiliann Sildillia does not intend to extend to Fribourg, who is aware that a sale will be essential to recover around ten million euros and avoid seeing him leave free. In this file, OM is on the lookout, ready to draw up an offer in January according to the media, which specifies however that there will be competition for Pablo Longoria in this file. In Germany, Sildillia is appreciated and Wolfsburg is also in the running to recruit the versatile right-back, also capable of helping out in central defense. It now remains to be seen whether OM will make an offer in the coming weeks and if so, at what price, while Friborg has been inflexible all summer, demanding more than 10 million euros for its 22-year-old defender. .
