The transfer window: Sampaoli at OM with Arturo Vidal in his suitcases?

2021-03-01T10:31:25.946Z


The astonishing rumor Vidal in Marseille, Eric Garcia in Barcelona or Klopp who retains Salah in Liverpool: find all the information about the football transfer window of this Monday, March 1, 2021.


OM: Sampaoli would like Vidal (Inter Milan), but ...

Released from his contract at Atlético Mineiro in Brazil, Jorge Sampaoli should land in France this week to take the reins of Olympique de Marseille.

And the Argentine coach would already put his pawns in view of the summer transfer window.

According to the

Calciomercatonews

site

, Sampaoli would make Inter Milan midfielder Arturo Vidal a priority for OM recruitment.

The new Marseille coach had exploited the best of Vidal with the Chilean selection, winning the Copa America 2015. But there are two snags: the reliability of the rumor leaves

something

to be desired, especially as the Argentine TV channel

TyC Sports

relayed the information, thinking of quoting "French media".

Then there is the financial aspect.

If Vidal (34) is losing momentum at Inter, where he has one year of contract left, his salary is no less than € 6.5 million / year.

That's more than Kevin Strootman, who earned € 6 million annually at OM and who was kicked out last winter for this reason.

With almost zero chances of qualifying for the Champions League, Marseille is therefore unlikely to be able to afford Arturo Vidal.

Arteta coach of Barça if Laporta is elected president?

It is this month that a large part of the future of FC Barcelona will be played out.

The supporters will finally know the identity of their new president, after the resignation of Josep Bartomeu in October 2020. Rumors are flowing about the projects of the various candidates on the recruitment of players, the extension of Lionel Messi or the name of the coach.

If Ronald Koeman has allowed FC Barcelona to shyly raise their heads, he is not sure to complete his contract, which expires in June 2022. According to Catalan radio

RAC-1

, one of the favorites in the presidency, Joan Laporta, has ticked off Mikel Arteta's name if Koeman does not stay at Barca.

Arteta (38), who passed through Barcelona between the ages of 15 and 20, missed his coaching debut at Arsenal, only 10th in the Premier League this season.

Guardiola confirms for Garcia at Barcelona

It's no longer a secret: Manchester City defender Eric Garcia will return to FC Barcelona at the end of his tenure this summer.

Trained at the Catalan club, the Spaniard (20) joined the English team in 2017, but he never won.

“I think Eric is going to have playing time in Barcelona,” his City coach Pep Guardiola confirmed.

Sky Sports

informs that a contract until June 2026 awaits him at Barça.

Klopp wants Salah to stay 'a very long time' at Liverpool

Is Mohamed Salah coming to the end of his adventure with Liverpool?

The Egyptian winger (28) won the Premier League and the Champions League with the Reds, whom he joined in 2017 from AS Roma.

Last December, he played with the interest of Real Madrid and FC Barcelona in an interview with the Spanish press.

The English media echoed Salah's ill-being in Liverpool.

Asked about the Salah case, his trainer Jürgen Klopp was full of praise.

"It's a little embarrassing when I have to flatter my own players, which I like to do to be honest, but especially in the case of Mo ', the numbers speak for themselves, Klopp said at a press conference. .

Mo 'is not just a goalscorer, he has also developed as a footballer.

He's a very, very important player for us and I hope he will be for a very long time, of course. "

Author of 24 goals in 36 matches this season, Salah is under contract with Liverpool until 2023.

Stéphan resigns from Stade Rennais (official)

This is news that Rennes supporters weren't expecting when they got up on Monday morning.
