Olympique de Marseille Faces Tough Competition for Jason Denayer
Olympique de Marseille has been actively pursuing Jason Denayer to bolster their central defense. The Belgian international, who also holds Congolese (DRC) descent, was reportedly on the verge of joining OM on a one-year loan, with no option to buy, after a promising tour of the club’s training facilities and the iconic Stade Vélodrome.
However, in the past few days, the move has lost momentum, and Marseille now finds itself in a highly competitive race. While La Provence reports that Galatasaray SK is currently the frontrunner for the 20-year-old’s signature, L’Équipe reveals that top agent Jorge Mendes has brought Valencia CF into the picture, further complicating the situation for the French club.
As Marseille continues to track Denayer, they will need to overcome these formidable competitors to secure the Belgian defender, who could prove to be a valuable addition to their backline for the season.
