While Luiz Felipe arrives at OM, Marseille leaders are trying to make another case straight away. Roberto De Zerbi could have two XXL defensive reinforcements!
We can no longer stop OM on the transfer market… After setting fire last summer to a historic transfer window for the Phocaeans, the leaders are on deck again this winter. Roberto De Zerbi asked for reinforcements, particularly in defense, so Pablo Longoria is working to give him satisfaction. And it smells very good for OM!
Luiz Felipe, the first big blow
The defensive sector has shown some shortcomings since the start of the season. Thus, Roberto De Zerbi wants at least two reinforcements, for the axis and the right side. As central defender, OM will first welcome Luiz Felipe, who has just terminated his contract in Saudi Arabia (Al Ittihad). A first big blow with this 27-year-old Brazilian, who is arriving for 18 months.
Danilo in the process?
In the process, OM tries to score a double blow! Indeed, Medhi Benatia is currently negotiating with Juventus to secure the signature of Danilo, another experienced Brazilian (33 years old). Dismissed by the Old Lady, Danilo will leave the club before February. And to avoid seeing him sign in Naples, who are keenly courting him, Juve could deal with OM for a small transfer. In a few hours, the Marseillais could complete two very solid reinforcements in defense and arm themselves a little more for the title race in Ligue 1.
