Timothy Weah very close to OM: a real good deal for us?

Friends, you must have seen it: Timothy Weah is more than ever in the sights of our OM. According to several reliable sources in Italy, including La Stampa, Gazzetta dello Sport, and Tuttosport, an agreement between OM and Juventus is imminent for the transfer of the American international. There has been talk of active negotiations for several days, and frankly, it looks promising for us!

A profile that fits De Zerbi's needs

Weah is a player we know well. At 24, he has already had experience between Lille, Paris, and Juventus. Even though his playing time was limited last season with Juve (28 matches in all competitions, often on the bench), he maintains a reputation as a versatile player, capable of energizing the right flank, a position where De Zerbi absolutely wants reinforcement since his arrival.

Don’t you think it’s a change from the profiles we’ve seen in recent years? We feel the coach wants speed, impact, and versatility. And with a World Cup in the United States coming soon, we can be sure Weah is hungry and wants playing time.

The cost and risks: a calculated gamble or a shot in the dark?

From a financial perspective, for now, no precise figures have leaked. But given that Weah is still under contract until 2028 with Juve, we imagine it won’t come cheap. Are we taking a risk by spending big on a player who hasn’t broken through in Turin? Maybe… But we’ve seen what he’s capable of in Ligue 1 with Lille, and his age remains an asset.

We must not forget that OM is looking to rebuild a competitive group. Will Weah be the first domino that kickstarts our transfer market? It's up to you to tell us, friends! Do you think he is the right profile? Are we making a good move or getting carried away too quickly?

What do the supporters think?

In the end, this Weah case is everything we love at OM: a player with something to prove, a profile that fits our needs, but also a gamble with risks. Do you approve of this choice? Should we go for it or wait for other more experienced recruits? Tell us everything in the comments, we want your opinion!
