OM could break its transfer record established only a few days ago with Peaceão.
The ink of the Peaceão contract is not even dry that OM could already shatter its brand new transfer record. The 35 million euros paid to offer the Brazilian of Feyenoord seemed to mark a historic turning point in the Marseille recruitment policy. But Pablo Longoria is already eyeing another target that could cost even more and again upset the Marseille financial standards.
What if the peace record held only a week?
The new coveted nugget is called Joël Ordóñez. The Ecuadorian defender of Club Bruges makes Roberto de Zerbi salivate, who validated his arrival to strengthen his defensive sector. Problem: Belgian leaders do not intend to sell off their jewel and claim 37.5 million euros, bonus included, to release their 22 -year -old international.
This financial requirement therefore largely exceeds 35 million invested on peace quite a few days ago. Bruges categorically refuses the Marseille offer of 30 million more bonus and camps on its positions. The Flendrian club hopes to beat its sales record set with Abakar Sylla, who left for Strasbourg for 20 million two years ago.
A record transfer to OM … already exceeded?
Ordóñez put pressure to join OM
The situation stretches on the Belgian side. Ordóñez gets impatient in the face of the requirements of her direction and
Even refused to train last week to force his departure to the Canebière. The compatriot of Pacho dreams of joining Zerbi but faces Bruges intransigence, who does not intend to give in to pressure.
A glow of hope remains nevertheless. Bruges could accept 30 million cash with bonuses spread over the duration of the Marseille contract. It remains to be seen whether Longoria dares to cross the course after having already exploded the counters with Peaceão. In the space of a week, OM could thus beat its transfer record twice consecutively,
Confirming his XXL ambitions for this already spectacular transfer window.
