The TOP 5 files of the day that should not be missed
1. Gerson leaves OM
As expected, midfielder Gerson (25) will leave Olympique de Marseille to make his Flamengo return to this winter transfer window! After long negotiations, the two teams have finally managed to find a total agreement, according to information from The Guardian journalist Fabrizio Romano.
Obviously, the vice-champion of France has not lowered his requirements and will recover a total of 20 million euros (including bonus) during the transfer of the Brazilian international. For his part, Gerson had already given the green light to find the Auriverde club and the operation should very quickly materialize. Good news for OM, which was counting on this sale to finance several arrivals in January.
2. Badiashile to sign Chelsea
AS Monaco has reached an agreement with Chelsea for the transfer of central defender Benot Badiashile (21) for 40 million euros (including bonus) this winter. On the sidelines of the victory against Brest (1-0) in Ligue 1, the Mongasque coach Philippe Clement gave an update on the situation of the French international, absent from the score sheet.
This morning, Benot was with us at the hotel. At that time, I was contacted by our managers who told me that there was an agreement between AS Monaco and another team. A team, I know, that interests Benot. But there is no agreement with him. Afterwards, our leaders asked me if he could leave today or not. It was my choice. I spoke with Benot and he wanted to be there for the team. But I have been in this situation a few times. From the moment there is an agreement with the team you’re interested in, you don’t have your head in the game 200% if you have to wait until tomorrow to leave. It was a normal decision for me to say that he could go today to speak there, in this situation with an agreement between clubs revealed the Belgian to the media.
Suffice to say that Badiashile will very quickly engage with the Blues.
3. Marquinhos will extend to PSG…
Despite less successful performances in recent months, Marquinhos (28) retains the confidence of his leaders. Indeed, the central defender, whose contract expires in June 2024, will extend with Paris Saint-Germain. We are well advanced. I hope it will happen as soon as possible said the Brazilian after the defeat of Lens (3-1), Sunday in Ligue 1. In the pipes, an extension of two additional years, that is until June 2026.
4. …but not Ramos?
Where will Sergio Ramos (36) play next season? He himself does not know. The one who will celebrate his 37th birthday on March 30 is actually coming to the end of his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, and he would like to extend the adventure there. Problem: Luis Campos and the Paris sports management have not yet decided on his case according to information from Ben Jacobs, journalist for CBS Sports. It must be said that the central defender is no longer very young, and that he sometimes finds himself in difficulty when the level rises, like Sunday evening in Lens (1-3).
If his Parisian adventure came to an end on June 30, the Spaniard would however have many avenues to bounce back, like the one leading to Al-Nassr, where Cristiano Ronaldo has just signed.
5. Lovren returns to Lyon
As expected, Dejan Lovren (33) leaves Znith six months from the end of his lease for Olympique Lyonnais. Passed by the Rhne between 2010 and 2013, the Croatian central defender signed up for two and a half years, i.e. until June 2025, in favor of the Rhone club.
I am very happy to return to Olympique Lyonnais. It was the club that opened the doors of international football to me, I will never forget that. I have many memories here, many links too, especially with President Jean Michel Aulas who has always supported me. I left Lyon in 2013 with regrets because I had the feeling that I hadn’t shown everything. I want to prove everyone what a player I really am said the former Liverpool player.
