Present at a press conference this Thursday, the president of the Olympique de Marseille Pablo Longoria spoke of the rest of this summer transfer window. With patience, the Spaniard gives his priority to the Pol Lirola and Daniel Wass cases as the right side.
Pablo Longoria was clear about the transfer window for OM.
Pablo Longoria is not happy from him. The president of Olympique de Marseille has nevertheless had a rather incredible activity since the start of this summer transfer window with 8 arrivals to strengthen the workforce at the disposal of coach Jorge Sampaoli.
But for his part, the Spaniard prefers to dwell on the big black spot in his record so far: the absence of any recruit at the right side post.
Lirola and Wass, Longoria wants to be patient
The transfer window, we are still in the same situation. We must seek to complete the workforce, there are positions where we are not ready. Individually, I am not happy with myself. Because it was my responsibility to the coach, it’s always better to have the most complete squad possible before the start of the season. It is a particular market, which begins to activate in the last days, estimated Longoria, in relation to the awakening of the English and the Spaniards.
Without language, the boss of OM openly spoke of the discussions for the players of Fiorentina Pol Lirola and FC Valencia Daniel Wass. On the arrivals, there is an ongoing process, we have talked about the negotiations for Pol (Lirola), it is public, we are talking with Fiorentina. But it’s still the same. In the present moment, patience is needed because it must be the right time for all clubs. There are a lot of clubs that have not done operations. With Daniel (Wass) or Pol, we speak with teams that haven’t moved much yet. I believe that started to activate now, for arrivals and departures, he continued.
Almada? Not the priority
In the crowd, Longoria was questioned on the track concerning Velez’s attacking midfielder Thiago Almada, who was in the sights of OM for several weeks but finally close to Atlanta in Major League Soccer. And on this occasion, the Ibre wanted to send a message to Lirola and Wass. Another chance for Almada? On Pol (Lirola) and Daniel (Wass), the revelations were published by the selling clubs in the press. It is for that that I allow myself to say things clearly, because we did not speak the press on our side. Mrs Valence, they have revealed the details of our final offer …, he breathed, before answering for the Argentinian.
For Almada, there is a lot of information in the press in recent days, with the possibility of an Atlanta transfer. Now, our priority is to strengthen ourselves in the positions (right side, editor’s note) where we are not ready, this is our absolute priority. And then, if there are departures, we will start activating options. But without the slightest start, we consider that we have the other double positions, ended Longoria. Precise, cash and perfectionist.
