Vitinha, it smells like a scam…

Recruited for 27 million euros last winter, Vitinha is already preparing to leave Olympique de Marseille for Genoa. With a possible sale announced at 25 million euros. Something to surprise.

Vitinha’s adventure at Olympique de Marseille is coming to an end. The last images of the Portuguese in the sky and white jersey should therefore be those of his incredible miss in the final moments of the match against Monaco on Saturday, and the bronca at the Vélodrome that followed. Unless there is a change in the situation, the former Braga player should therefore join Genoa.

According to transfer specialist Gianluca Di Marzio, an agreement would have in fact been reached between the two clubs on the basis of a loan with a purchase option set at 25 million euros, without the conditions requiring the lifting of this option is not revealed. Given the catastrophic year delivered by the Portuguese, these 25 million euros are cause for concern.

Daniel Riolo also shared his incomprehension on Monday on RMC. “We shouldn’t even talk about this stuff because it’s not possible, he whispered. For Genoa to put 20 million euros on a player, it’s not possible, for us to put 20 million on this player, it’s not possible. So, that means that there is something underneath that we cannot control. People know how to talk to each other in Europe and know its current level and I have not heard of a non-obligatory option.”

The RMC polemicist also pointed out the incessant turnover desired by Pablo Longoria since his arrival at OM. “The problem is this recruitment with these constant comings and goings which we don’t understand, it’s Vitinha and his 30 million”, he whispered, adding: “You won’t be able to get the 30 million out of your head. The biggest transfer in the history of OM is him, the poor guy, and it’s hard for him because he didn’t ask for anything. I don’t know who the scout was who spotted this player and thought he had the level to be worth 30 million. There are a lot of people who went to see him. We are forced to believe that there is something hidden and that there is something wrong in the drawer on this file because it is not possible, otherwise we are beyond incompetence.
