the Mercato revelation which risks making supporters dream

Since the arrival of Pablo Longoria, Olympique de Marseille has always been a major player in the transfer market. And that is unlikely to change, even more so since the arrival of Medhi Benatia and Roberto De Zerbi. Ambitious, the Marseille club intends to compete with Paris Saint-Germain in the years to come. From this year, moreover, where Parisian performances are closely scrutinized. L'Equipe reveals to us that Marseille leaders closely followed last night's meeting between Lens and PSG.

Sales this winter to finance “large-scale projects”?

They have long believed in a poor performance from the Ile-de-France region which would have allowed it to relaunch the title race in the event of a victory against Strasbourg this evening. But Bradley Barcola's goal shattered this prospect for the moment. The objective will above all be to consolidate this second place and regain the lead over Lille while taking advantage of Monaco's new misstep in Montpellier on Friday evening (2-1).

Satisfied with the productions of his team as well as his state of mind, the 45-year-old technician gave a speech that could not have been more positive and mobilizing internally. An ambition which could further assert itself in the next Mercatos since the possible sales expected this winter (Wahi, Brassier…) “could be used to finance large-scale projects” says the sports daily. Enough to make the supporters salivate.
