At 31, Jonathan Clauss is coming out of a very complicated 2023/2024 season with Olympique de Marseille. One year from the end of his contract, the Marseille right-back was clearly pushed out last winter by the Benatia-Longoria duo. Accused of saving himself for Euro 2024, the 31-year-old defender ultimately stayed. Since then, Clauss has found the French team and is smiling again. This evening, he even scored a splendid goal with the Blues against Luxembourg (3-0). But even when he is in the selection, questions about his future arise.
Recently, the Marseillais had kicked into touch. “The season has been complicated for OM in general. In hindsight, it’s not all negative. Of course, not being European next season is a clear failure, but we have to learn a lot from it. In this complicated season, we had a good group and strength of character. There are no cheaters in the group. We knew how to work. Sometimes, we tried to give everything we had at the moment. Next season, we will have to try to put things back in placehe explained. My future ? I don’t want to talk about it, I’m focused on the event. The transfer window, we will have time to talk about it afterwards, to be composed to discuss properly.”
Clauss is ready to go
But at the end of the Blues match played in Metz, Clauss let go a little more. He first mentioned his exceptional goal. “It’s almost like the first (with the Blues). It was played perfectly. This week, we played a little game with Youssouf (Fofana) and I played almost the same in training. Work pays. (…) When nothing bothers me, I try to meet expectations as best as possible”he confided to the microphone of TF1before being relaunched on its future.
And when the journalist asked him if he was open to leaving this summer, his answer was quick. “Yes, if there’s something for everyone, why not. The question will be raised. We will discuss it in complete serenity, we will make the best decision. » Unsurprisingly, discussions will undoubtedly resume once the Euro is over. Because Jonathan Clauss knows it well. If he manages to have a big tournament, he may have more options. To be continued.
