Olympique de Marseille will soon announce the recruit of Facundo Medina. After the Argentinian, the Marseille club will tackle other targets.
The RC Lens finally gave in: the 26 -year -old central defender will commit to OM against 22 M€ Bonus included. The final transfer will take place in 2026: in the meantime, the international is loaned in Marseille with compulsory purchase option. According to RMCthe Mercato of Phocaeans is obviously not over.
The French club now targets 4 positions in particular. Here they are:
Central defender
Despite the imminent and expensive recruitment of Facundo Medina, Olympique de Marseille still wishes to buy a central defender. The track leading to Nayef Aguerd is therefore still alive, while the journalist Hakim of Lions of the Atlas indicate on X that the Moroccan will indicate “His next destination by the end of the week” And that OM is still in the race, despite the price – 23 M€.
Moreover, Evan is Crow (AS Roma), Aymeric Laporte (Al-Nassr), Benoît Badiashile (Chelsea) I Aaron Anselmino (Chelsea) are other tracks, but currently less hot.
Right defender
As reported by RMCthe 2nd of Ligue 1 plans to acquire a player on the right, To replace Amir Murillowhile Pol Lirola is intended to leave. The Bayern Munich player, Sacha Boeyhas been mentioned for several days, while the old track leading to Nelson Semedo (free) seems completely extinct.
The Frenchman of Bayern Munich is cited in a major club, in this case Juventus. And the German club wants a transfer rather than a loan, which complicates the track for OM.
Left winger
On the left, the tracks have multiplied, all coming from the Netherlands: Ivan Perisic wanted OM, but the Croatian, too greedy for the French club, finally extended to the PSV Eindhoven, after being quoted at Barça. The Brazilian Igor Passion (Feyenoord) is very expensive – 35 M€ -And maybe too much for Marseille's finances. Finally, Noa lang is very close to Naples, to 30 M€.
This Tuesday, Sport said that OM was among the courtiers for Pablo Torreand the Spaniard of Barça can play on the left. But his main position and his characteristics indicate that the 22 -year -old is rather a central attacking midfielder, see a relay. We can also think of rumor Hamed Junior Traoréeven if the Ivorian is also rather an axis player.
Scorer
In attack, while Neal Maupay is on the startand that Faris Moumbagna will find the land after almost a white season, because of an injury, OM wishes a reinforcement. Very satisfied withAmine Gouiriprolific winter recruit, Marseille seeks him a lining or a competitor.
According to RMC, Olympique de Marseille has not abandoned the track leading to Matthis Abline. However, Waldemar Kita, the president of FC Nantes, had been clear about the interest of OM: 50 M€ Or nothing. But recently, The team revealed that a offer of 20 M€ had arrived from Sunderland and had been refused. Market football said the Canaries were waiting between … 25 and 30 m €. What to give hope to Marseille?
