The Italian press announces the new transfer of Longoria
Pablo Longoria has been very active in this summer transfer window, signing on around ten recruits to strengthen Olympique de Marseille. However, it is far from over since in Italy it is assured that a new face should land in the south of France, with Jordan Veretout of AS Roma, a name that has come up regularly since the beginning of the summer. .
It’s not a long, calm summer that we go throughOM. After qualifying for the Champions League on the wire, the Marseille club saw Jorge Sampaoli slam the door and if his successor quickly arrived with Igor Tudor, the mayonnaise does not seem to set. The former coach ofHellas Verona would have already alienated part of the team, since there would have been clashes with certain major players of theOM. Not enough, however, to endanger this new project, since Pablo Longoria recently assured that he has no concerns about this for the moment and continues to focus above all on the summer transfer window.

Longoria once again very active in the transfer window
With the significant departures of Boubacar Kamara and William Saliba, we knew that theOM was to hit hard this summer and Pablo Longoria did not disappoint. Several reinforcements landed including Samuel Gigot, Isaak Touré, Chancel Mbemba, Jonathan Clauss and Nuno Tavares. Very nice shots, since most of them arrived either on loan or free of any contract, which is particularly the case for the former defender of the FC Porto. However, this is not enough, since another transfer would be almost completed on the side of theOM !
A three-year contract and a salary of €3 million net
This Thursday, the Italian press agrees that Jordan Veretout is one step away fromOM ! According to information from Il Corriere dello Sporta three-year contract would await the 29-year-old French international, linked to theAS Roma until 2024 and probably more in the plans of Jose Mourinho. Information confirmed by Il Messaggero and Il Corriere di Romawho speak of a net salary of €3m and a loan with a mandatory purchase option set at €10m.
“Beware of the rumor on social networks”
However, this operation does not seem to delight everyone. In recent days, supporters of theOM have risen up on social networks with in particular a hashtag #VeretoutNotWelcome. A controversy that Pablo Longoria immediately wanted to calm. ” There is a question in life. Is Veretout doomed? Did he do something wrong? Then there are other questions. In life, you have to have ethics, values… But beware of rumors, social networks “explained the president of theOM, during a recent press conference. ” Is judging someone popularly morally acceptable? That’s my point of view, you always have to respect people “.
