Following the departure of Patrice Evra and the first performances of Jordan Amavi, Olympique de Marseille were looking for a left side. If now the Japanese Yuto Nagatomo is Amavi’s understudy, OM have tried to bring in a player from Naples on loan without paying almost nothing.
Before bringing in Yuto Nagatomo to replace Jordan Amavi, Olympique de Marseille had tried to recruit a player from SSC Naples without spending a lot of money. Agent Christian Bosco told Neapolitan radio CRC that OM had tried to recruit Faouzi Ghoulam last year. However, OM wanted a loan by paying only 25% of his salary, the rest taken care of by Naples.
“OM wanted it in free loan and asked Naples to pay 70 to 75% of his salary”
“You have to clarify your situation and know if it is really a footballer on whom you still count! Some time ago, Faouzi got an excellent new contract. This was before his injury, with the prospect of a transfer to Real Madrid, Manchester City, Manchester United or Juventus, who followed him closely. Olympique de Marseille showed up a year ago, but they wanted him on a free loan and asked Napoli to pay 70-75% of his salary. Aurelio De Laurentiis did not give in ”Source: CRC
An attempt that failed hence the reason for the arrival of Yuto Nagatomo this season. However, the Japanese only play if Jordan Amavi is injured.
