Romeo Agresti, Italian journalist believes that the young recruit of OM, Franco Tongya has everything to become a top European player.
Decidedly, the transfer window of Olympique de Marseille is very agitated. Between the departures of Kevin Strootman, Kostas Mitroglou and Morgan Sanson (not yet official for the last 2 cities) and the arrivals of Pol Lirola and Arkadiusz Milik, Pablo Longoria is in the oven and in the mill. This Monday, it is an exchange with Juventus concerning two young players which is in the pipes. Indeed, Marley Aké should join Serie A, while the young Franco Tongya would do the opposite. A transaction which can be explained by the desire of the two clubs to value their respective player around 7 million euros in their next balance sheet. So who is this young 21-year-old who has never worn the first team jersey in Turin? In an interview with Phocean, Romeo Agresti, Italian journalist at Goal, described the new Marseille recruit.
« He’s a great player, undoubtedly. Last season he was one of the very best youngsters in Juve. He is a very technical central midfielder with, moreover, a warrior temperament on the field and who can play in a defensive or offensive position. He has a lot of room for improvement, but he’s already a very good player. I even think he has everything to become a European top player in the future. He plays with the Italian U19s, having been selected in all youth categories, and he has an international future Explained the journalist, specifying that the midfielder left Juventus not for sporting reasons, but for contractual reasons, his agent demanding large sums to extend. At a post where places will have to be taken with the losses of Strootman and Sanson, there is no doubt that the young Tongya has a card to play.
