Asked about the rumors in the corridors announcing the departure of Olympique de Marseille, Amir Murillo jumps in: “Honestly, I don’t know what rumor you’re talking about. I haven't heard anything, I'm happy, I play a lot, I help the team. We get along very well in the locker room. I don't know where these rumors come from.”.
If he feigns the situation, it is true that OM will seek to compensate for possible arrivals in January, through transfers of contracts sometimes justifying the saving in salary more than the potential compensation to be recorded on a case-by-case basis. Particularly with regard to the Panamanian right side. With him, the Marseille club is almost certain to cover its costs.
Transfermarkt values the OM side at €1.225 million
Because recruited at the very end of the summer 2023 transfer window from RSC Anderlecht in Belgium, against compensation of 2.5 million euros, he would now be worth almost three times the stake according to Transfermarkt which estimates it at 7 million euros.
In the strictly accounting sense of the term, with his contract signed over a period of three years, at the end of June 2027 and compared to the compensation for his transfer, it is worth half as much as depreciation for Olympique de Marseille, or 1.225 million euros for a 28-year-old player.
