Luis Henrique is from Marseilles!

The 18-year-old striker signed his contract with Olympique de Marseille on Friday.

“He becomes the 42nd Brazilian player to don the white tunic.

While he wore number 7 in Botafogo, in particular as a tribute to Garrincha, he will wear number 11 in Marseille, ”announced the Marseille club in its press release.

The Brazilian, who successfully passed his medical examination despite a pubic injury, is said to have signed up for the next five seasons.

Olympian leaders have spent 12 million euros to acquire it, according to the latest indiscretions of 

L'Equipe

.

The Brazilian, a left winger by training but capable of playing in other offensive positions, should bring new blood to an Olympian attack which, apart from the return to the forefront of Florian Thauvin, has not yet been renewed compared to the season last.

“Luis Henrique is a player of great talent and of the future.

He has significant physical capacities, a good quality of dribbling, a great percussion.

These are important qualities in football today and characteristics that are valued in our squad.

He has a lot of talents, he starts in a Brazilian first division team with a lot of pressure.

It will bring us some interesting things with its characteristics.

He is a promising player.

He can occupy any offensive position.

He played as a winger with the Botafogo U20s and then a striker with the Botafogo first team.

In the past two years he has played in all offensive positions.

We are impatient to see him because with his characteristics, he is a passionate player who can convey emotions, ”said OM football director Pablo Longoria.
