Incredible turnaround on the side of Olympique de Marseille, where the new coach could ultimately be Roberto De Zerbi, although currently working at Brighton in the Premier League, and not Sergio Conceição, free since his departure from FC Porto.
In any case, Mehdi Benatia and Pablo Longoria confirm that OM will have great ambitions during this summer transfer window, even while being deprived of European competition next season.
And if doubts still exist for the futures of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Al-Shabab in Saudi Arabia?) or even Jonathan Clauss and Leonardo Balerdi, another golden lead could well resurface in Marseille in the coming hours!
Indeed, how can we not think of this lover of OM that is Maxime Lopez, when mentioning the name of Roberto De Zerbi… who had allowed the native of Marseille to explode in Sassuolo to the point of becoming one of the best in his position in Serie A!
And let’s not forget that the 26-year-old midfielder is coming out of a complicated loan at Fiorentina, who will not exercise his purchase option this summer. With the relegation of Sassuolo to Serie B, Maxime Lopez will therefore be available at a good price during this offseason (we are talking about more or less €7M).
Maxime Lopez who returns to OM and who once again shines on the pitches of Ligue 1, under the orders of one of his favorite coaches Roberto De Zerbi: who takes the bets? We do!
