It will be the shock of this thirteenth day of Ligue 1 this Sunday evening, Olympique de Marseille is preparing to host AS Monaco!
An important match for OM, which would at the same time keep an eye on the next winter transfer window. In addition to the Paul Pogba file, whose return to competition will be scheduled for March 2025, the Benatia – Longoria duo would study other plans to strengthen their midfield.
If the priority obviously remains to strengthen the defensive sector, Roberto De Zerbi would have slipped several names to Mehdi Benatia for OM, including that of Giacomo Raspadori (Naples). But not only…
Indeed, in an interview with the British press, Andreas Pereira confirmed having received a great offer from OM during the last summer transfer window. Which had been refused by Fulham.
Open to the idea of leaving even in January, the midfielder, who has nine caps with Brazil, even made a strong appeal to OM and to his coach Roberto De Zerbi!
Currently valued at €28M (compared to nearly €40M last summer by the Cottagers), Andreas Pereira would therefore be a serious lead from Mehdi Benatia for OM, in parallel with those targeting Paul Pogba as well as another Brazilian international Arhtur Melo (Juventus Turin). And all the more so as he will enter the last year of his contract at Fulham at the end of the season, and his price could therefore be revised downwards this winter.
