The France international is keen on leaving Olympique de Marseille this summer and is now attracting a lot of interest from the Italian Serie A giants
So far, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-de-Marseille-c40127 have been unable to make a move in the transfer market. Devoid of the necessary funds, the Rhone giants can only watch their bitter rivals, Paris Saint-Germain spend millions of Euros on new recruits.
Marseille’s financial plight has forced them to sell players before they buy new ones. The transfer window for Les Phoceens has been really calm. However, it now appears that things could change drastically from now onwards.
Reports claim that the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rod-Fanni-c31402, Cesar Azpilicueta, Stephane Mbia and Loic Remy could all be sold by the end of this month.
Another player has now been linked with a move away from the Stade Velodrome. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Lorient-c39153 last summer. In his first season with the Canebiere side, the Frenchman gave a good account of his talents.
Reports claim that Italian Serie A side, AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603, are keen on attaining the player’s signature and have even contacted the player’s representatives over a possible move to the Italian capital this summer.
Under contract with Les Phoceens until 2015, Amalfitano is yet to receive a concrete proposal from Lupi who are still keen on increasing the depth in their workforce this summer.
After arriving at the Velodrome last summer, the 27-year-old quickly established himself as an integral part of Didier Deschamps’ starting XI last summer. Amalfitano made 28 starts in 32 Ligue 1 games last season.
Technical and intelligent, the former Lorient star impressed in his debut season with the 2010 champions of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899. Last season, the player was also given the privilege of wearing the colours of the France national side.
However, the end of the 2011/2012 campaign was a painful episode for the France international. Amalfitano publicly criticised his teammates and even expressed his desire to leave Olympique de Marseille by the end of the season.
Although the departure of Didier Deschamps and appointment of Elie Baup has cooled the situation, Roma’s offer (if it does arrive), could see the player leave Velodrome after just one season.
