Mercato OM : Weah Ordóñez and European ambitions

The latest episode of L-Apero Mercato, available on the YouTube channel, looks back in detail at the movements and rumours about the Olympique de Marseille. The focus is on the potential arrival of Timothy Weah, a young talent of the AS, whose agreement is almost concluded for a loan with purchase option at €14M plus €3M bonus. Discussions about Greenwod’s departure are also discussed, with considerable offers of Saudi clubs, including a potential offer of €80M. In addition, the programme addresses the transfer of Joël Ordóñez, a 21-year-old central defender, who is interested in many European clubs after a brilliant season in Bruges, with a quoted price of €37.5 million. The show highlights OM’s ability to target highly sought-after player profiles, demonstrating growing ambition.

Beyond these specific transfers, the show explores other mercato tracks for OM. The possible exchange between Azze dine OuNahí and Miguel Gutiérrez de Girona is mentioned, as well as the expectation of two new recruits: a midfielder and a left side. The RC Lens is also presented as a potential competitor for Florian Thauvin. These movements illustrate the will of OM to strengthen its workforce and position itself as a major player in the transfer market.

Finally, the show addresses the goals set by consultants Kevin Diaz and Walid Acherchour for OM in the various championships. The main objective is to maintain a constant performance in Ligue 1, to qualify for the Champions League and to aim for victory in the Coupe de France. The consultants point out that OM can no longer afford to be inconsistent and must compete with Paris Saint-Germain. The enhancement of the workforce and the development of internal talent are also seen as key to the club’s long-term success. The stability of the team and the structured sport project are presented as major assets to achieve these ambitious goals.
