Jeffrey de Lange on the move? Analysis of a heated case
There's always something happening at OM, and this transfer window is no exception! Just a year after his arrival, Jeffrey de Lange could already pack his bags. Have you often seen him on the field? No, and that's really the whole problem... With only two small matches played, both in the Coupe de France, it's difficult for him to impose himself behind Rulli. So, should we really be surprised to see Lille knocking at the door?
Lille, a real option for De Lange?
LOSC, who just let Lucas Chevalier slip away to PSG for €40M, is quickly looking for their new number one. Naturally, with De Lange warming the bench at OM, it's tempting for them. But is it the right solution for the player? In Marseille, he didn't get his chance, but in Lille, the pressure will be enormous for this key position, especially after such an important transfer of Chevalier. Is it a risk for them? Surely. And for us, it's also a little risky to let him go without having seen all his potential.
€6M on the table: a good deal for OM?
We're talking about a price around €6M requested by the management. Honestly, guys, it's not so bad for a player who hasn't really made an impact with us. But beware, you know: in football, everything can go very quickly. De Lange is only 24 years old, and if he explodes elsewhere, we might regret it. On the other hand, this money could be used to strengthen other positions where we really lack depth. What do you think? Good deal or unnecessary risk?
Domino effect: the case of Edon Zhegrova
The real question is also whether this De Lange file can facilitate other negotiations. There's a lot of talk about Edon Zhegrova, the LOSC winger we've been closely monitoring for weeks. Even if each deal remains independent, an open dialogue with Lille can speed things up. Zhegrova, would he be a real good catch or not in your opinion? Looking ahead: an exchange of good practices between clubs, is it all beneficial for OM or are we getting ahead of ourselves?
