Iliman Ndiaye will not go to OM because his Sheffield club has brainwashed him and convinced him to stay. A decision that does not pass in Provence.
Three weeks before the first official match of the season, Olympique de Marseille still only has one centre-forward in its squad. Annoying necessarily, but even more so when his coach swears by the 4-4-2 with therefore the need to have two points from the kick-off, and a little more in stock to hold the season. If Pablo Longoria likes to surprise the followers of his club with unsuspected tracks, the effect is missed as far as Iliman Ndiaye is concerned. Because the Senegalese center-forward had everything from a good pick, since he was coming out of a successful season with Sheffield United and was preparing to start the season in the Premier League in the shoes of a holder. But he had above all confided in his love for OM and his desire to join the Marseille project, even if it meant finding an agreement with his future club to force his departure.
Ndiaye is staying to play in a cricket stadium?
But in addition to the financial demands of Sheffield to the tune of 20 million euros all the same, the forcing of the English club to keep its striker ended up bearing fruit. Gradually, the trend was reversed and OM understood that their number 9 would not come. The disappointment is great, and it is even reflected in the words of La Provence, which is ironic about Ndiaye’s choice not to come. “ Was it the air of lively South Yorkshire that he was going to miss? Was he finally looking forward to playing with the promoted Premier League in front of the 32,000 supporters of Bramall Lane, this enclosure originally dedicated to cricket? “, Thus chambers the local daily, which above all highlights a financial choice on the part of Ndiaye. The team even adds a layer, explaining that the financial interest of OM, which was ready to make a big effort to come, will serve the interests of the native of Rouen to better negotiate a contract extension which should be completed. in the next weeks.
