Passionate about football since a young age, becoming a sports journalist quickly became obvious to Hugo. He would later discover a love for the NBA, before exploring other horizons such as Formula 1 and the NFL.
Appointed coach of Montpellier last October, Jean-Louis Gasset would like to recruit one of the players he had under his command last season at OM, Bamo Meïté. Marseille had closed the door a few weeks ago, but is now open to his departure. However, the MHSC does not, for the moment, meet Marseille's expectations.
Upon his return to the bench Montpellier end of October, Jean-Louis Gasset had identified one of his former playersABOUT as potential reinforcement, Bamo Meïté. At that time, Marseille was not ready to part with it and the MHSC had then set his sights on Nikola Maksimovic (33 years old), who has since been injured and will be out for the rest of the season.
-“Bamo Meïté, whom we contacted, has this profile”
« With Maksimovic's injury, we can think about taking someone at the back, while Becir Omeragic can also play in the middle. If we have to take someone, we would rather hire a stopper, who can play right back », recently confided Laurent Nicollin to Midi-Freeconfirming the interest of MHSC pour Bamo Meïté. « Bamo Meïté, whom we contacted, has this profile, but OM wants to sell him. You never know what can happen at the end of the transfer window. »
OM awaits financial compensation, Montpellier only offers a dry loan
Indeed, due to the arrival of Luiz Felipe (27 years old),ABOUT is now open to departure from Bamo Meïtéunder contract until June 2028. Marseille leaders are even willing to let him go on loan in exchange for financial compensation, but that is precisely where this file gets stuck. Indeed, as indicated by Provence, Montpellier has few resources and only offers a simple loan in order to promote the 23-year-old defender with a view to a possible transfer next summer. Friday evening, discussions betweenABOUT and the MHSC had not made any progress regarding Bamo Meïté.
