Posted on November 18, 2021 at 12:00 am by AD During the last summer transfer window, Luan Peres left Santos to join OM. While discovering a new country, a new culture and a new football, the Brazilian defender has delivered on his integration in Marseille. To strengthen the central defense of Jorge Sampaoli, Pablo Longoria took the necessary steps to recruit Luan Peres. To bend the direction of Santos, the president of OM offered a check of approximately 4.5M €. While he had never played in League 1 , Luan Peres discovers a whole new championship and a new culture. Despite everything, the Brazilian defender is adjusting well to his new life at OM , even if he still has difficulties speaking French, as he has admitted himself “How do I explain my rapid adaptation? I think what is most complicated for me, off the pitch, is the language, which I haven't mastered yet; especially because some players here communicate in Portuguese, Spanish or English. That’s why at the moment I don’t understand everything, but I have French lessons three to four times a week. I'm still a little shy about speaking French and saying all the words I know. I always want to improve myself, I study the game a lot, work from the videos sent by the staff. I always give my best on the pitch, I try to be as focused as possible because the standards are very high. But of course, being around great players helps a lot. It makes my job easier, ”admitted Luan Peres in an interview published on the official website of OM on Wednesday.
