Pablo Longoria didn't take long before taking out his phone during this winter transfer window.
Even if Olympique de Marseille did rather well in its first part of the season, with a second place at the break behind Paris, it was difficult to imagine the Marseille leaders not moving in this month of January, they who love the transfer window periods. And a first alert came this Saturday evening, even though we hadn't seen much coming: Italian-Brazilian defender Luiz Felipe should arrive in Canebière very quickly, in order to sign for eighteen months. Aged 27, he spent most of his career at Lazio (between 2016 and 2022), without forgetting his experiences at Salernitana and Betis, before leaving in September 2023 for Saudi Arabia, where he played with Al-Ittihad.
More movement to be expected in OM's defensive sector
Having become unwanted in his club in recent months, the one who has a cape with the Italian selection had just returned to Italy to reunite with his family, and should therefore take a few weeks before being operational. His arrival should in any case result in at least a departure, that of Bamo Meïtéwhich definitely does not fit into Roberto De Zerbi's plans, and several clubs have already expressed their interest. It will also be necessary to monitor the situation of Lilian Brassierwho is experiencing the start of a catastrophic Marseille adventure and could immediately leave Provence. In this case, OM could move to another defender, preferably left-handed.
And Mehdi Benatia, he doesn't want to put his crampons back on otherwise?
