Lucho Gonzalez attracting interest from Bundesliga side http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/VfL-Wolfsburg-c40881 – Bundesliga news
Olympique de Marseille midfielder, Lucho Gonzalez, is heading close to an exit from Stade Velodrome, something that has been talked up in the media for several weeks now. First it was La Liga side Malaga CF that was reportedly interested in signing the influential
midfielder.
However, the Andalucíans are not willing to meet http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-de-Marseille-c40127’s asking price for the player. Marseille President, Jean-Claude Dassier, has set the South American’s price at 13 million Euros, which the Spaniards believe to be too steep for a player
who is heading towards the final few years of his playing career. Though the ambitious Spanish side are keen on recruiting El Comandante, it seems that the wealthy owners are not going to be held for ransom for any player even though they have the resources
to buy the talent they want.
Olympique de Marseille are more than willing to offload the South American. Rumours suggest that German Bundesliga side, VfL Wolfsburg, are keen on signing the Argentine international. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wolves-c40952 coach, Felix Magath, is believed to be a long-term admirer
of the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gonzalez-c15099 his priority this summer.
The 30-year-old has been a key figure at Stade Velodrome since his arrival from FC Porto in the summer of 2009. At that time, Marseille paid 18 million Euros for his services, which is a club record. With the Rhone giants looking to recover some of that
amount, Lucho Gonzalez would surely become embroiled in one of the biggest transfer sagas in Ligue 1 this summer.
It is still not clear where Lucho Gonzalez will be playing next season as Olympique de Marseille are not willing to drop their asking price for the 30-year-old. With Marseille looking to reduce the burden on the payroll, the club might consider lowering
their valuation of Lucho Gonzalez.
