Sampaoli targets two unexpected Marseillais for his Mercato

This winter transfer window for OM is rather calm despite the arrival of Luiz Felipe and the departure of the young nugget Enzo Sternal. With a second place in Ligue 1, Roberto De Zerbi's men are performing despite some disappointing results and the elimination in the Coupe de France against Lille on Tuesday evening. A rather successful start to the season for the Olympians unlike Stade Rennais which is in a sad 14th place and which for its part promises to be active in terms of arrivals. Jorge Sampaoli would also target two new Olympians after the failure in the Lilian Brassier case, which interests Bologna.

Two defenders in Sampaoli’s sights

After having formalized the arrival of Seko Fofana and Brice Samba, the Breton club would like to strengthen its defensive sector. A few weeks ago, Roberto De Zerbi brushed aside the possibility of a sale of Valentin Rongier to SRFC but Jorge Sampaoli is not giving up on the matter with OM and is eyeing two players to strengthen his defensive sector. According to information from L'Equipe relayed by Top Mercato, the Argentine coach would target Chancel Mbemba, whose contract expires in June and a free departure is envisaged, and Bamo Meïté, both undesirable. The young Ivorian defender is on loan from Montpellier but if Rennes sits down at the negotiating table, an agreement could quickly be found.
