Unhappy with its start to the season, Olympique de Marseille is considering some changes to its squad this winter. Certain players will not be retained, including regularly established players.
Without wanting to say too much, Medhi Benatia still set a trend for the winter transfer window at Olympique de Marseille. “ We will have a discussion with the coach and the president on what we can doannounced the sports advisor on RMC on Tuesday. We can always look at how to improve the team, and it will be done. » The Marseille club plans to strengthen its workforce. And who says recruits often means departures. So who will be the Marseillais sacrificed this winter? According to the journalist of The Team Mathieu Grégoire, Bamo Meïté, still sidelined, has reason to worry. Just like the holders Amine Harit and Amir Murillo.
« They still put a lot of resources into this summer, almost 75 million committed plus 45 million euros that you will pay next year on compulsory purchase options: Brassier, Hojbjerg… Even if you have players like Brassier, Wahi or Koné who do not respond to what you want for the moment, you will give them timeannounced our colleague interviewed on the Youss TV YouTube channel. We will instead take stock next summer for them. So who can move? It will be a bit of the same files as this summer: Amine Harit and Bamo Meïté. »
An offer refused for Meïté
« Montpellier offered a loan for Meïté, OM studied the proposal because they get along well with Montpellier thanks to Gasset. Meïté was interested but OM replied that they wanted to keep him for the moment because he comes back well, he is sharper and because there are not so many right-handed central defendersinformed the journalist. For this winter, it will depend on the offers, they don't have much interest in lending him. We will also have to monitor Murillo because we need to free up space in terms of payroll and finances to, for example, bring in a right-back who could be number 1 in front of Lirola, who will not give away and who will go as far as at the end of his contract. » As is often the case with President Pablo Longoria, things should change this winter in Marseille.
