Olympique de Marseille has retained all its attractiveness on the transfer market.
Despite failing to qualify for Europe last season, theMarseille Olympics has retained all its appeal on the scale of French football. You only have to listen to the club’s recent recruits to attest to this. Quentin Merlin did not arrive this summer. The French Espoir international arrived in the Phocaean city in January 2024. And he is already won over by the local environment.
“I have matured. I had trouble adapting and it is necessary to have time to adapt when you arrive at a new club, especially here, the Olympic vice-champion enthused at a press conference on Friday. Playing for this club is magical, there is nothing better. It is a dream. I am also a professional off the pitch. I have to continue like this.
“Our goal is to be in the European Cup”
In great shape, Merlin assures that Olympique de Marseille has all the assets to succeed in a great season, at the dawn of a new cycle under the tutelage of Roberto De Zerbi.
” There is a craze here in the city. Everyone lives for this club. When you are not from here, you hear it but you do not realize it. Playing here is extraordinary, I am very happy. There is humility to be had. We have a large group that has been strengthened. Our objective is to be in the European Cup. We must be serious on the pitch. We are eager to know where we will finish the season but we must be patient,” concluded the former Nantes player.
