L’ABOUTon the occasion of market winter, hopes to sign reinforcements for the group of Roberto DeZerbi. Several names have been circulating for days around the Marseille club. Among them, Danilo is one of the Marseille coach's priorities.
Mercato OM: Danilo, a priority track for Roberto De Zerbi
OM, still active in the transfer window, is seeking to strengthen its defensive options for the rest of the season. And this in a context where a recruit like Lilian Brassier struggles to give satisfaction and adapt to the Marseille environment. In this sense, the club coached by Roberto De Zerbi would have ticked Danilo's name.
Since the arrival of Roberto De Zerbi, OM has experienced a real revolution. Marseille leaders wish to continue this momentum by recruiting new elements to strengthen the workforce. Danilo, at the end of his contract in June 2025 with Juventus, seems to be an ideal target. His experience, versatility and defensive profile perfectly match Marseille's needs.
Fierce competition
But the Marseillais will not be the only suitors for Danilo's profile. Indeed, Napoli, under the leadership of Antonio Conte, have also reportedly identified the Brazilian as a priority to strengthen their defense. Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio confirmed this information, highlighting the Neapolitan club's strong interest in the player.
“Danilo?” There is Naples. Antonio Conte and Manna have identified Danilo as ideal for Napoli's defensive sector. I say Naples wants it. Danilo’s contract is coming to an end and he would like to play a little more”he indicated. For his part, the Brazilian international is looking for a new challenge. Little used at Juventus, he would like to find playing time and a more important role in a new club.
The choice between Olympique de Marseille and Naples therefore promises to be complicated for the Brazilian defender. The arrival of Danilo would be a real masterstroke for the Marseille club. His experience and technical quality would make it possible to considerably strengthen the Marseille defense. However, competition from Naples risks complicating the task of Marseille leaders.
