OM would currently chat with Bayer Leverkusen to bring back to France the former Toulousain Amine Adli.
Olympique de Marseille continues to work on its recruitment just over a week from the resumption of the season in Ligue 1 and the trip to Rennes. After the arrival of Timothy Weah from Juventus Turin, the Marseille club is still negotiating with Bruges for the expensive transfer of the Ecuadorian defender Joel Ordonez, while looking for a winger profile to perfect his rotation.
The Edon Zhegrova file is still being studied, but another name has been added to the list of OM potential targets in recent hours: that of Amine Adli. A few years ago, when he was still playing in Toulouse, the former French international hopeful (he now defends the colors of Morocco among the A) had been announced in Marseille, finally held back by the amount requested by the Haut-Garonnais.
In 2021, OM already wanted it!
Leaving at Bayer Leverkusen in 2021, the native of Béziers experienced the success and the first lines at his record. In 2023-2024, the attacking midfielder had thus participated actively in the glorious season of the men of Xabi Alonso in Bundesliga. Leverkusen had been crowned champion without losing the slightest match. A series that had ended after 51 games straddling the following season. According to information from the team, OM chats with Bayer, where it is said that Erik Ten Hag, who succeeded Alonso, does not count particularly on Adli. It remains to be seen whether the price that the German training will be required will be prohibitive or not for the Marseillais.
The quest for another winger, despite the arrival of Igor Peaceao and the presence of Jonathan Rowe, necessarily questions the Marseille intentions about English, which is said to be courted in Italy and the Premier League. Abundance of good not harming, Medhi Benatia may also simply make sure that OM will have a sufficient workforce depth not to be off-topic in the Champions League and in League 1.
With Bayer Leverkusen, Amine Adli has played 142 games in all competitions for 23 goals scored. If Marseille manages to recruit him – we speak of an estimated value of 18 million euros – he can discover for good a Ligue 1 which he only knew for 4 games before Toulouse went down in Ligue 2. It was there that he turned out, with a trophy of best player in League 2 in 2021.
