The mercatos pass, but Kevin Strootman remains a player for Olympique de Marseille. Under contract until 2023, the Batavian environment and his very impressive salary pose many concerns on Canebire, where the sporting director Pablo Longoria took over the file.
Strootman has only been started once this season.
He was the one who was supposed to help Olympique de Marseille pass a level. But, transferred in the summer of 2018 after the Europa League final lost to Atletico Madrid (0-3), Kevin Strootman (30) ultimately never managed to win.
Physically overwhelmed, the Batavian was pushed towards the exit during the last three mercatos. Without success. The fault is a really XXL salary, the highest of the phocen workforce …
Strootman would earn more than € 500,000 per month
In the current economic context, against the backdrop of a health pandemic, few clubs are able to pay Strootman the € 500,000 that OM would pay him each month. unless his salary is even higher? You write all the time that he gets around € 500,000 a month, but I can assure you that it is a little more than a, explained an internal source at the club our colleagues from La Provence.
More than half a million a month for a player who has only been established once since the start of the season? No club will risk such madness, and it is not Strootman who will ask for his departure. And for good reason: the former metropolitan of Roma feels good in Marseille, where he has acquired a villa, according to La Provence. Professional level, even if he does not play or little, the Dutchman continues to train meticulously.
Longoria takes over the Strootman file
Andr Villas-Boas recently reminded us: The good thing about him is that he’s always ready to play. Certainly, but this remains a meager marketing argument for the sports director Pablo Longoria, responsible for selling this unwanted formerly recruited at the request of Rudi Garcia … with an XXL contract until 2023. Technically, OM will still have to drag Strootman like a ball. for the next two seasons.
less than the pressure recently put by Frank de Boer, the coach of the Netherlands, pushes him to look for playing time elsewhere before Euro 2021? It is a possibility. And the OM is waiting for: to be able to get rid of Strootman’s staggering salary without unilaterally breaking his contract, a hypothesis considered at the time by President Jacques-Henri Eyraud. In any case, we should not expect more than 3 or 4 million euros in the event of a transfer. We are far from the 28 million euros invested barely 28 months ago …
