OM: €3 million, Benatia wants it at Olympique de Marseille!

If Mehdi Benatia had tried until the end to convince Roberto De Zerbi to keep Jordan Veretout at Olympique de Marseille, the 31-year-old French international midfielder will have finally left OM after the end of the summer transfer window to join Lyon, as a joker.

But according to the latest rumors, the former captain of the Morocco national team who had worn the jerseys of Bayern Munich and Juventus Turin during his football career would have this time managed to reintegrate another OM player into the group led by Roberto De Zerbi: Ulisses Garcia.

Unlike Chancel Mbemba, the mentality of the 28-year-old Swiss international left-back would have been very appreciated by Pablo Longoria and the Marseille board when he trained in the famous loft.

Bought for €3M during the last winter transfer window from Young Boys Bern, thanks to Mehdi Benatia’s extensive networks, Ulisses Garcia will therefore be Quentin Merlin’s understudy at Marseille this season.

And there is no doubt that the Swiss will be hungry for revenge, after having had a rather complicated first six months with OM. A reinforcement that remains welcome within Frank McCourt’s Marseille club!
