Pablo Longoria knows the daring moves in the transfer window. The president of OM hopes to make Chelsea listen to reason with an unexpected offer.
It is not certain that Roberto De Zerbi will have everything he dreams of during this winter transfer market, but the Italian coach sees Pablo Longoria struggling to please him. The president of OM is working on several avenues, and one of them is extremely complicated. But that does not slow down the Spanish leader, who even hopes to make Chelsea fall for a player in whom the London club believes a lot. This is Renato Veiga, a promise for the left-back position unearthed at FC Basel last summer. The Blues brought him in for 14 million euros, but the Portuguese is above all a player for the Conference League, given that he has not been used once in the Premier League in the last 6 matches, even coming out of the group against Fulham.
As usual, Chelsea are considering loaning him out to allow the 21-year-old to keep pace and get tougher, in order to better recover him at the end of the season. Lazio Rome and Borussia Dortmund are keen on this prospect and the German club has a head start after positioning itself very early on in this matter, while suggesting that Veiga's playing time could be more important than 'Currently. But nothing is over, because OM arrived with a completely different offer. Indeed, Pablo Longoria does not want a loan, but a permanent transfer from Veiga to Marseille, says transfer window specialist Alfredo Pedulla.
-OM ready to crack Chelsea
An investment in which the transfer window boss at OM believes a lot, while Quentin Merlin is struggling to completely convince Roberto De Zerbi. This offer surprised Chelsea, who were initially not willing to get rid of a player they believed in for the future. But Longoria has already achieved a few masterstrokes of this kind, and his desire to pull the rug out from under all his competitors could well give the Blues pause for a few days.
