The winter transfer window already promises to be explosive at OM due to the growing interest in Mason Greenwood (24).
Author of a hat-trick last night against fans from Bayeux in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France in Caen (9-0), Mason Greenwood confirmed his good season at OM. And this caught the eye of a European giant in the middle of the transfer window: Atlético de Madrid is leading the way.
Atlético replenishes its coffers for Greenwood
According to information from Transfersthe Spanish club launched a real financial operation to be able to afford the English star of OM. Several sales have already been accelerated to replenish the coffers: Conor Gallagher went for 40 million, Giacomo Raspadori could bring in almost 20 million, and Thiago Almada around 20 million more. To this could be added the sale of Nahuel Molina, estimated between 10 and 15 million. The objective is clear: raise the necessary budget to tackle OM and bring the English striker to La Liga.
Simeone finally fully convinced?
With his progress in the defensive field, Greenwood finally corresponds perfectly to the profile desired by Diego Simeone. Able to play in several offensive positions, he would seduce the Argentine coach with his talent and versatility. Simeone even confided privately that the arrival of Greenwood would represent a real qualitative leap for the Atlético attack. For their part, OM knows that retaining Greenwood will not be easy if a massive offer arrives. Marseille could find themselves negotiating as early as January, with a club ready to put in the means to afford their star.
