Posted on December 21, 2021 at 2:30 p.m. by TM With the approach of the winter transfer window, questions arise about the future of Steve Mandanda. Today, the OM legend is in the shadow of Pau Lopez. A situation which could therefore push him to leave in January. What to react on the Canebière. During the last summer transfer window, the cards were completely redistributed for Steve Mandanda . Undisputed number 1 in goals for OM , the world champion saw Pau Lopez disembark from AS Roma . What therefore impact on the hierarchy of guardians. And if Jorge Sampaoli refused to clearly establish an order between the French and the Spaniard, it happened naturally. Today, Pau Lopez is the holder while Mandanda he sits on the sidelines, settling for a few games. However, this situation does not necessarily seem to satisfy the Marseille porter. At 36, he still wants to play. Questions therefore arise on the continuation of the adventure at OM of Steve Mandanda , he who is however still under contract until in 2024. And this Monday evening, RMC also revealed future progress on this subject since the Marseillais would simply ask to meet with Jorge Sampaoli to be fixed on his situation. An interview with his agent which could then be decisive for Mandanda. Depending on the response he receives, a departure may well be considered and there is no lack of options to bounce back. While there has recently been talk of an interest from ASSE , which is looking for a doorman to make up for the absence of Etienne Green , other French teams are said to be on hand to reach out to the current Sampaoli player. Will go, won't go? This should therefore be the soap opera Steve Mandanda during the coming weeks on the occasion of the winter transfer window which will open its doors on January 1st. And this Tuesday, we were able to get some initial answers from the OM . Indeed, before the match against Stade de Reims, Jorge Sampaoli attended a press conference. The opportunity was therefore perfect to seek clarification concerning the situation and the future of Mandanda on the Canebière. To this, the OM coach replied: “Personally, he didn't tell me anything, he didn't express any concerns to me about it. So it's more up to him to answer that ”. Jorge Sampaoli would therefore not know anything about the future of Steve Mandanda . It remains unclear on this subject, although within the dressing room of the OM , we still count on the legend of the club. This is the message sent by Matteo Guendouzi , also in front of journalists on Tuesday. “He is a very important player for us, for the whole group and the club. He's a club legend. He helps us on the pitch and in the locker room. Every goalkeeper when he played has helped the team, “said the French international OM . 
“He didn't tell me anything”
