Mercato – OM: a Ligue 1 defender on the way!

Olympique Marseille have never been more willing to sign their second signing of the winter transfer window, after Cameroonian midfielder Jean Onana.

Olympique de Marseille’s winter signing is getting a real boost. After the official arrival of Cameroonian midfielder Jean Onana, on loan with an option to buy from Besiktas, the Bouches-du-Rhône club is racing hard to offer a left-back, a position thought as a priority by Pablo Longoria.

“On travaille sur différentes possibilités, notamment sur le poste d’arrière gauche. C’est une des priorités dans la recherche du club, maintenant”, expliquait hier le président espagnol en conférence de presse. Le vœu des Phocéens semble en passe de s’exaucer.

More than on the track that leads to Josh Doig, the Scottish defender of Hellas Verona, the control of Marseille has put its attractions on a player from the French championship. If we stick to the data provided this Friday by our colleagues at RMC Sport, Olympique de Marseille is in the process of completing the arrival of a left back who plays for Stade Rennais, undoubtedly invited to compete with the Brazilian Renan Lodi.

If the trend continues, Marseille will secure Adrien Truffert’s facilities. He is close to reaching an agreement with the 22-year-old Breton defender. The amount of the future play has not been leaked. For its part, the online website Foot Mercato announces an acceleration of negotiations on the Liège venue, which has a contract until June 2026 with the SRFC. An extension announced in August 2023 through the Roazhon Park-based club.

Trained in Brittany, Adrien Truffert has made 136 appearances in all competitions for the first team, with a career-high 6 goals and 16 assists. Since the start of the 2023-2024 season, the flexible defender has made 23 appearances, making 16 Ligue 1 appearances, with two goals and two assists. On 25 September 2022, Rennes revered his first and only international appearance for Didier Deschamps’ Les Bleus, against Denmark in the Nations League (0-2).
