Posted on November 16, 2021 at 11:30 a.m. by G.d.S.S. Arriving at OM in the form of a no-buyout loan last summer, William Saliba is already sparking a lot of ink about his future. Pablo Longoria is considering signing him permanently, and it looks like the Arsenal-owned player is drawn to the prospect as well. But this file will not be given financially… Among the great satisfactions of the last transfer window summer which had been very agitated for the OM in the direction of the arrivals, one notes in particular the good integrations of Pau Lopez , Luan Peres or again William Saliba . The latter, which arrived in the form of a loan without an option to buy from Arsenal, has already established itself as a very strong element of the eleven-type of Jorge Sampaoli, to such an extent that the leadership of OM is already reportedly considering negotiating a definitive transfer with the Gunners. And Saliba already has a very concrete idea of what he wants for his future… Le journalist Ekrem Konur, who was at the origin of the information on the desire on the part of the OM to definitively recruit William Saliba l “Next summer,” said the case in detail in an interview with the Phoenician: “Indeed, Mikel Arteta wants him in his squad next season. But, for his part, William Saliba sees his future at Arsenal less and less, especially as he is convinced that he made the right choice by signing for Marseille. A bit like Cengiz Ünder, he feels that it is there that he can explode for a future in a European top club ”, indicates the journalist. But how much would this operation cost the OM , while Saliba's contract runs until June 2024 with Arsenal? : “Negotiations should start very quickly between Arsenal and Marseille. On what basis? Difficult to say, because Edu Gaspar, the technical director of the Gunners, does not let information filter. But I think a sum of around 25 million euros could constitute a basis for discussions. The possibility of a new loan should not be ruled out either, this time with a definitive purchase option in the deal. In fact, Arsenal's situation is very confused at the moment, and no player in the squad is unsaleable, ”continues Ekrem Konur behind the scenes of the Saliba file, which could therefore cost a fairly large sum for OM next summer, while the Marseille club is not necessarily going through an easy period financially. But Pablo Longoria already has a first element to reassure himself: Saliba seems ok to make a long-term commitment with OM.
