Zapping Goal! soccer club OM: top 10 market values of Phocaeans
This is undoubtedly THE big blow expected by OM supporters. Barring a bad last-minute surprise: the Chilean Alexis Sanchez (Inter Milan, 33) will leave Lombardy to join Canebière where he agreed with Pablo Longoria on the outlines of his future contract.
According to our Mercato specialist Ignazio Genuardi, it was Igor Tudor who changed the game on this file. Indeed, if he is now determined to join OM, Alexis Sanchez initially had more in mind to join La Liga (Bétis Sevilla, Villarreal see Barça). The Croatian was able to find the words to divert him from Spain by selling him his Olympian project.
Milik forced to leave to make room for Sanchez?
However, if the Italian and Chilean media are very optimistic about Sanchez’s arrival in Marseille, the former Arsenal and Manchester United player still has to agree with the Nerrazzuri to terminate his last year of contract, he who has recently refused the €4.5m compensation promised by Milan for him to pack up.
Alexis Sanchez having been promised a major role at OM, the Chilean could well complicate the life of the OM attackers in place. In addition to Bamba Dieng, Arkadiusz Milik, who is still of interest to Borussia Dortmund and Juventus Turin (in addition to being an untouchable dream for Waldemar Kita’s FC Nantes!) could be more directly indicated for the exit.
Tied until June 2023 with the Nerazzurri, the South American has been promised a major role by Sampaoli’s successor, and discussions will continue this week. In the other direction, in addition to B. Dieng, Milik particularly appeals to Dortmund and Juve.
