The OM transfer window is starting to take shape in terms of departures. In recent days, Jonathan Clauss left for Nice, while the Marseille club made Jordan Amavi’s departure official early this evening. According to our information, Ismaïla Sarr is next on the list. The Senegalese signed his contract with Crystal Palace this evening. The press release from both clubs should come very quickly.

For Pau Lopez, we will have to wait a little longer. The Spanish goalkeeper was about to leave for Como, promoted to Serie A, but according to our information, his agent demanded money from the Marseille management, to compensate for the difference between his salary at Olympique and that offered by the Italians. That, plus the series of failures to find him a successor have delayed and even cancelled the departure of the 29-year-old goalkeeper.

OM and Werder discuss

There have been quite a few names between Illan Meslier, Filip Jorgensen, Alvaro Valles and then Timon Wellenreuther, the latest name, who defends the Feyenoord goal. Less than three weeks before the restart, we still don’t see anything coming. The money collected in the various sales and the freed up payroll will allow OM to have more latitude in this matter, and that’s good since a new name has appeared in the last few hours.

According to information from Sky Sport In Germany, OM is studying the profile of Michael Zetterer. Initial discussions have already taken place between the two managements since De Zerbi validated this choice. The last bastion of Werder Bremen, who extended his contract until 2027 last May, could finally leave. A regular starter with the German club, 9th last season in the Bundesliga, the 29-year-old goalkeeper is valued at €3 million on Transfermarkt.
