Posted on December 9, 2021 at 5.30 p.m. by Dan Marciano While Jordan Amavi could leave Marseille this winter, OM have been looking for a replacement and have set their sights on Sergio Gomez, under contract with Anderlecht. An offensive profile, valued between 5 and 6M €. Present at a press conference a few days ago, Jorge Sampaoli was cash. OM coachconfirmed that he was not counting on Jordan Amavi and opened the door to a departure this winter: “Jordan or others have the right, if they want, to look for a way out (this winter). The coach has the right to think so too. The important thing is that the player progresses, it is the coach's responsibility. If we can't do it, maybe another team can help. We will see what will happen with him or others in the next few weeks. Some players haven't adapted well, it's a process ”. Active during the last summer transfer window, the Marseille club will try to recruit its replacement next January and have already targeted a player. According to the information of the Last Hour, the OM would have ticked the name of Sergio Gomez, under contract until 2025 with Anderlecht . Recently, the English press also spoke of the interest of Manchester United , but also of Inter, of Ajax, Villarreal , Rennes , LOSC , and AS Monaco . An offensive profile, which could correspond to the style of play advocated by Jorge Sampaoli . < p> Journalist for Walfoot, Florian Holsbeek presented the profile of Sergio Gomez , passed by FC Barcelona before flying to < strong> Borussia Dortmund , and therefore Belgium. “What you think of Sergio Gomez in Belgium is that he is a very diligent player. He's very smart, he has a huge ability to make the right decision in the finishing areas. We still feel that he was trained at Masia, even if he only did 3 seasons after having studied at Espanyol (…) He plays very high, and he was annoyed on some encounters if his direct opponent has speed and can take him behind his back. But in 8 out of 10 games he is an excellent player, he could weigh a little more on the game. He is the best passer on his team with 7 assists and 5 goals. He is a diligent player who knows how to respect the instructions, he can play alone on his side in a defense of 5 or 4. On the other hand, he never goes in the axis, he always remains stuck to the line, it is there he is the strongest “he confided in an interview with Football Club Marseille. Anderlecht does not necessarily want to see him soar to other skies during the next winter transfer window, especially that Sergio Gomez has achieved interesting performances since the start of the season. However, the Belgian club could agree to sell him, especially if a satisfactory offer arrives on the table of its leaders. “Sporting Anderlecht still put in € 2.5m to collect it from Dortmund. Officially it is not for sale but like all players in the Belgian league it is “buyable”. In terms of transfer amount, in my opinion it takes between 5 and 6M €, more towards 6 to release it. This is more or less the price of the full-backs leaving Belgium “adds Florian Holsbeek . President of the OM, Pablo Longoria could soon accelerate in this file and try to offer a reinforcement of choice to Jorge Sampaoli . “By January, I have to find the economic resources to improve the workforce, with the assets I have on the team. It can mean selling players and using the money wisely. The sale of a player can make a team stronger and ultimately erase its handicaps. I consider that we have already improved a lot of things last summer, but there is still work ”said in an interview with L'Equipe Pablo Longoria, who will certainly have to sell before buy.
