One of the players tracked by OM for its attack has just signed with the neighboring club OGC Nice.

This is news that Pablo Longoria is unlikely to like. The OM president saw one of his summer targets join a rival club on Wednesday. The player in question is German international Youssoufa Moukoko.

Before setting their sights on Elye Wahi, Marseille had tried to get their hands on the Borussia Dortmund striker. In vain. The various parties concerned were unable to agree on a transfer.

Nice plays a trick on OM

Instead of heading to Marseille, Moukoko signed with OGC Nice. The loan, with an option of 18 million euros, has just been made official by the Côte d’Azur club.

For the Gym, this is a very nice acquisition. Their new recruit may be coming off a difficult season, but is very talented. Moukoko has the distinction of having been the youngest player to play and score in the Champions League. That was four years ago already. Today, he is 19 years old.

For Franck Haise, the Aiglons coach, this is a choice acquisition. In attack, he should partner his new transfer with Terem Moffi, with the hope that the Aiglons will finally take off. During the first two days of the championship, his troops have only picked up a single small point.
