Can OM, who have already made huge moves recently, allow themselves to dream of the arrival of Neymar, soon to be free? The return to reality is brutal, because the Brazilian is no longer a dream.
Pablo Longoria loves to try his luck in desperate shots. And it works for him a few times. Who could have believed, a few years ago, that players like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexis Sanchez, Adrien Rabiot and Mason Greenwood, a priori beyond the financial means of the Provençal club, would finally sign for OM? Even without the European Cup to play, the Spanish president managed to bring in Roberto De Zerbi, one of the most sought-after coaches of the summer and who had an offer from Manchester United. Nothing stops “Don Pablo”, but there are still some limits. Notably the one mischievously put by the journalist specializing in OM Romain Canuti, who responded to a listener of the Talk on Le Phocéen.
Neymar soon free!
In the question/answer game at the end of the show, a follower tried to throw a pole at the journalists present. “ There is Neymar who is soon free ”, was thus followed on the set. Romain Canuti's response was quick and tasty, making it clear that the former PSG player now in Saudi Arabia would not sign for OM. “ He will soon no longer be a footballer too », Slipped the speaker, for whom the 32-year-old Brazilian has already retired since leaving Paris, and his countless and serious injuries don't help matters. Returning after knee surgery, Neymar suffered a relapse in his thigh for five weeks this fall. The only two options for his future are between Santos, his training club which dreams of recovering him at a necessarily ridiculous price, and Major League Soccer and in particular Miami, which is considering a reunion with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.
For the rest, even if Neymar likes to feel courted, OM's interest remains a simple fantasy while it is not certain that sportingly, after a year and a half without playing, the former playmaker of PSG still has the level to withstand the physical impact of Ligue 1.
