This is what we can call an incredible metamorphosis. Arrived in 2020 with the label of a large Brazilian crack, Luis Henrique sometimes disappointed with OM. However, the 8 million euros invested by the Marseille club a few years ago seem to be completely justified when reading the beautiful 2024-2025 season that is making the right background. Taking advantage of a loan to Botafogo last year to recharge their batteries and come back to the best he can do, the 23 -year -old Brazilian returned to the Canebière with a completely different face. And that was enough for him to become an irremovable part of the Zerbi Roberto system this season.

Under the spell of his player, the Italian coach aligned him as soon as he was able to. And Luis Henrique makes him well with 9 goals and 7 assists in 29 matches in what is the best cuvée of his young career. “He is making a very big season. He demonstrates that he is a full player with and without a ball. He is scoring a lot of goals and progresses a lot. He is one of the most important players in OM ”also explained the Italian technician about the native of João Pessoa last March. An Olympic form which has necessarily fueled the lusts in parallel. Extended until 2028, the Brazilian does not lack courtiers while his market value continues to soar.

Inter Milan will present a first offer, Bayern, Bayer, Newcastle and Nottingham on the lookout

Today, it is in Italy that the interest is most urgent. If a first intelligence was made last month by Inter Milan with the player's agent, the Lombard club accentuated his pressing and seems determined to offer the player. After establishing first discussions with OM, the reigning Italian champion is inclined to submit a first transfer offer to the Marseille club in the coming weeks. The will of the Nerazzurri is clear, Luis Henrique is a priority of the future summer transfer window and the objective is even to be able to have the player for the future World Cup of clubs which will take place next June according to our information. It remains to agree with Marseille who could claim more than 30 M € to release his player. The good relations maintained between the Italian club and the current 3rd in Ligue 1 could also promote the operation.

But Marcus Thuram's club is not the only one at the time. Bayern Munich is very interested in Brazilian. Vincent Kompany particularly appreciates the profile of the very versatile OM winger and recently came to observe it during PSG-OM at the Parc des Princes (3-1 defeat) last March. At the study stadium, this track could grow by the end of the month, the Bavarian board, which also has more than cordial relationships with the Marseille management, plans to return to the news by the end of April. Besides Bayern, Bayer Leverkusen is also fully on Luis Henrique. The club coached by Xabi Alonso has also exchanged with the player's entourage to evoke a possible offer from the Leverkusen club for OM n ° 44. Finally, Nottingham Forest also appreciates the qualities of the former Botafogo, but has not yet taken the slightest approach to the entourage of the player as well as Newcastle who would imagine him in his team next year.
