Eric Di Meco looked ahead to the next summer transfer window at Olympique de Marseille.
After a season concluded in the soft underbelly of the ranking, theOlympic Marseille is expected around the corner. Pablo Longoria should activate his networks to strengthen the squad in all lines in order to restore the image of the Marseille club next season.
With this in mind, the president of OM will have to decide for several important players in the squad. A keen observer of the club, Eric Di Meco took part in the transfer window by revealing the names of the executives he would keep this summer.
Di Meco pleads for a change of goalkeeper
For the RMC consultant, interviewed by La Provence, only 6 players can sign up for the long term to allow OM to approach next season with ambition. “For me, Mbemba, Balerdi must stay. I would like it to be the same for Clauss, but his position is not obvious one year from the end of his contract and when he will participate in the Euro. He might be in quite a bit of demand. I can’t wait for Rongier to come back. You have to rely on these club players, duty players, like him and Veretout. And then, Aubameyang in front. With the season he had, it’s hard to imagine the future without him. Afterwards, the rest…”
Di Meco is categorical: OM must renew their attack, but also find a new goalkeeper. “You have a whole offensive sector to rebuild. I think that on a typical team, you have to renew at least half of them. Plus additional players, likely to replace them. And that’s without taking into account the goalkeeper position, which is another problem. I still don’t understand the replacement of Mandanda by Pau Lopez. Even at the time, I was against it and I argued with everyone. Today we pay for it…”.
