Lens sets its conditions at OM on Elye Wahi
 

In the sights of Olympique de Marseille in view of this summer transfer window, Elye Wahi could leave the Racing Club of Lens. However, the northern club has set its conditions and wants to be intractable.

 

It was the big shot of the Lens mercato last season. Recruited for 30 million euros from Montpellier, Elye Wahi (21) had to compensate for the loss of Loïs Openda just recruited by RB Leipzig. A heavy recruit for the Artesian club who finally had a mixed first exercise with 12 goals and 4 offerings in 36 matches where he will have shone more on the European scene.

 

Given a financial situation that pushes the club to sell, RC Lens is therefore open to a sale of Elye Wahi and the Premier League is on the lookout. Chelsea, West Ham or Leicester are in the tray to snatch his signature. In France, Olympique de Marseille is also trying its luck to bring another offensive solution to Roberto De Zerbi. A destination that seduces the player who would agree to wear the white and blue jersey next season.
 

Two offers refused, Lens asks for €35 million

However, concluding the transfer will not be an easy task for the Phocaeans. The latter thus drew a first offer with a paying loan of €2 million and a purchase option set at €18 million. Lens immediately refused this approach. Marseille then returned to the charge with an upwardly revised proposal, but it was also refused.
 

According to our information, the Racing Club de Lens does not want to give up control in these negotiations and has set its conditions. Inflexible, the northern club wants a dry transfer and opposes any assembly including a loan for next season. Lens also wants a sum of between 30 and 35 million euros, an amount higher than what was disbursed a year ago. Marseille should return to the charge. It remains to be seen whether this will be enough to convince the Artesians.

So basically another decent player that doesn't want to be here, running theme of the whole summer. Oh but we splashed most of our budget in a CB we didn't need that no one ever heard of.

We will know on Saturday if we are interested in him when / if he plays against us, can see it now he plays and Faes does him in the first minute and puts him out for the season.

If Faes can get anywhere near him I'm not sure we want him.

The Big 6 get absolutely ridiculous fees for average players. 

Madness isn’t it. If you’ve played in Man City’s academy and have had a bum slap from a bald man you’re worth 10million minimum. No need to prove yourself anymore

Tbf, given his history, I think there are one or two of us that don't want him here either.

He’s actually a fantastic player, and the level we should be looking for in a new striker to lead the line in the premier league, (I don’t think either Datro Fofana or Bilal Toure are there yet). Absolute knob of a person by the sounds of it though.

Have we signed him yet or doesn't he want to come here anymore after yesterday's shit show at Lens, I know I wouldn't.

Considering we’ve moved for someone else…… I’d say a solid no 0_o
