Chased cross in defense. This could be the subtitle of the Olympian transfer window this season. On the arrivals route: Gigot, Mbemba, Touré. On that of the departures, OM hopes to see Caleta-Car and Alvaro. But it is Luan Peres who borrows it first. Indeed, according to our information, the 28-year-old Brazilian defender will finally join Fenerbahçe.
An agreement in principle was reached overnight between the leaders of the two clubs. The deal was done quickly, since Fener recently expressed its interest. With the departure of its South Korean defender Kim Min-Jae, the Turkish club wanted several reinforcements. We thought for a time that he would be satisfied with the Brazilian Gustavo Henrique, from Flamengo, but he continued despite everything the offensive on Luan Peres.
An agreement reached in the night
With success since the Istanbul leaders have managed to reach an agreement with their Marseille counterparts. According to the sources, the price differs, ranging from 3 M€ to 5 M€. One thing is certain, there is little chance of seeing Luan Peres again in the Olympian jersey, even if he still has of course to sign his contract with Fenerbahçe, which should amount to 1.5 M€ per year, for 3 years. He is also expected tonight in Istanbul.
Arrived in the luggage of Jorge Sampaoli last summer, recruited for 4.5 M€ at Santos, the 28-year-old Brazilian defender has established himself as a regular starter, in the left axis of the defense then essentially on the left side. A good soldier, he rarely disappointed and was not particularly pushed towards the exit. But this summer at OM, there will be no untransferable player.
