A nice bet to try for Olympique de Marseille? Sidelined at Brighton Hove & Albion following his refusal to extend, Josh Duffus remains an important player in the England U19 national team and therefore considered one of the future great talents across the Channel.
Enough to catch the eye of Mehdi Benatia and Pablo Longoria on the OM side with a view to the transfer window, especially since Roberto De Zerbi knows the young 19-year-old English attacking midfielder perfectly since his time with the Seagulls.
But in addition to this great lead leading to Josh Duffus, who will be free next June, OM is also looking to attract many other very promising young people. Which clearly changes from previous seasons. An attractive project on all levels led in Marseille by the excellent Mehdi Benatia.
Indeed, according to information from the famous Italian journalist Nicolo Schira, OM will want to strengthen its defensive sector as a priority this winter and the profile of Abdukodir Khusanov would greatly appeal to Mehdi Benatia.
Impressive with RC Lens since the start of the season, the young 20-year-old Uzbek international central defender Abdukodir Khusanov would also be flirted with by some European big names, including Chelsea or even Tottenham and PSG. Not easy for OM.
However, the financial problems of the Racing Club de Lens could push them to make several good sales from January… It remains to be seen whether the club where the former Lens player Elye Wahi plays will be able to benefit from this player estimated between 15 and 20 million d 'euros.
