Olympique de Marseille consider making move for Pippo Inzaghi of AC Milan – Ligue 1 news
In a surprising bid of events, Ligue 1 giants Olympique de Marseille are seriously considering making a move for veteran striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Filippo-Inzaghi-c13777.
At the age of 38, Inzaghi is certainly finding it hard to get regular opportunities at Italian Serie A side AC Milan. Not used in the UEFA Champions League so far, the former Juventus man has made just three Serie A appearances and there’s a mutual thinking
among fans that the striker’s illustrious future at AC Milan is coming to an end.
However, Olympique de Marseille are willing to give Inzaghi a chance to play regularly one last time before he draws curtains on a glorious and trophy-filled career. With AC Milan looking to recruit http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Tevez and Maxi Lopez in the upcoming winter transfer
window, Inzaghi might be forced to look for another club in three weeks time.
Il Corriere dello Sport also claims that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-de-Marseille-c40127 are in pursuit of the Italian striker and could make contact with Inzaghi’s agent in the coming days.
On the other hand, Olympique de Marseille are already in the market for a new striker. Andre-Pierre Gignac is currently injured and might leave Stade Velodrome. Furthermore, Andre Ayew and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ghana-c2905 in the upcoming
African Cup of Nations in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Equatorial-Guinea-c2892.
Furthermore, Inzaghi might not cost the Phoceens that much as compared to other strikers that the club is keeping tabs on. The Italian’s experience of playing consistently at the top level for more than a decade would certainly help the club’s younger players.
However, Didier Deschamps should not be looking at Inzaghi as the solution to his attacking worries. Despite scoring 70 goals in Europe and 316 in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926, Inzaghi’s best days are behind him and he would not be fit week in week out.
Marseille are also keeping tabs on Borriello, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 which means that Deschamps would certainly give preference to bringing younger strikers at the club over a man who has almost won everything available at top level club and international
football.
