Dries Mertens’ contract with Italian Napoli has expired and he is now a free agent and it is not yet known where he will continue his career.
According to the first reports, it is mentioned that the footballer is in negotiations with Olympique de Marseille.
Only a few days ago, Igor Tudor was appointed as the head of the coaching staff of the French club.
He came from Verona and certainly Mertens’ qualities are well known to him.
Although the Belgian wanted to stay in Napoli, the agreement was not reached.
On the other hand, the president of Marseille Pablo Longoria spoke highly of the Belgian footballer and one gets the impression that he would do a lot to bring him.
Apart from Olympique de Marseille, Lazio and Antwerp have shown interest in this footballer.
