A revolution is brewing at OM. The coach Roberto DeZerbi would request from its management at least three reinforcements in defense during the next transfer window.
Mercato OM: Roberto De Zerbi has identified his priorities for this winter
Olympique de Marseille will undoubtedly experience a very eventful winter transfer window. After a summer marked by a significant wave of arrivals, the Marseille club does not intend to stop there and plans to strengthen its squad in January.
Despite a convincing start to the season, Roberto De Zerbi would like to make some adjustments to his team, particularly in defense. The Team reports that the Italian coach of OM would have requested the recruitment of a left central defender, a right side and a left side.
These arrivals will have repercussions on the locker room
It is in this sense that the names of Sacha Boey, Danilo and Kiliann Sildillia have been circulating in the corridors of the Vélodrome in recent days. These arrivals could also weaken the position of certain members of the OM locker room.
Lilian Brassier, Michael Murillo and Ulisses Garcia, who are struggling to establish themselves in De Zerbi's playing system, could notably be forced to leave the club. For the moment, OM seem determined to strengthen their rearguard to consolidate their place at the top of the ranking and qualify for the next Champions League.
The Marseille club should therefore be very active on the transfer market in the coming weeks. These defensive targets also demonstrate the desire of President Pablo Longoria and Mehdi Benatia to build a competitive workforce capable of competing with the Parisian rival.
