Failing in Naples, the Dane Jesper Lindstrom could bounce back in Ligue 1. Lyon follows him closely but it is OM who are favored by the player’s entourage. However, it remains to reach a financial agreement with Naples.
Will we see Jesper Lindstrom in Ligue 1 this summer and above all where? The young Danish attacking midfielder is in the sights of OL and OM. Lyon have been the most enterprising in this matter but they are coming up against the greed of Naples. OL is trying to obtain the player’s loan but the Italian club is demanding a strong purchase option, close to 30 million euros. This is the price at which Naples recruited Jesper Lindstrom in Frankfurt at the end of summer 2023. Lyon’s failure leaves Marseille in the race and Marseille’s chances are very real.
The Lindstrom clan favors OM
Indeed, according to information from the X La Minute OM account, Jesper Lindstrom is sent to the OM side by his agents. “ Lindstrom’s agents are pushing Naples to sign the player for OM », Writes the media close to the Marseille club. A turnaround since OL is much more active than OM in signing the Danish player.
However, Marseille is far from being able to claim victory in the Lindstrom case. Naples is just as financially demanding with OM as with Lyon. The Italians want a sum close to 30 million euros, both on loan and in direct transfer. Only a few days ago, Olympique Lyonnais made a new offer which was refused by Naples according to Italian media. Without a European Cup to play and with other transfers to complete, Marseille does not seem equipped to do better than OL financially.
