Olympique de Marseille is in the process of getting rid of Dario Benedetto, currently on loan at Elche.
Let’s go ! If the Marseille transfer window promised to be rather calm in the direction of arrivals, we are starting to be entitled to a beautiful name waltz in recent days, with Anthony Martial as the last crazy rumor. But if Pablo Longoria wants to please Jorge Sampaoli, he will have to degrease …
If there are some players in the workforce who are candidates for a departure, such as Boubacar Kamara due to his contractual situation or Duje Caleta-Car, we had forgotten Dario Benedetto. The Argentine striker, who still cost more than ten million euros two and a half years ago, is playing for Elche this season, where he is also struggling, with two goals in fourteen appearances, including only six as a starter, having played only 45 minutes in November and December.
Boca wants it!
But at home, its rating remains intact. As indicated La Nacion, Boca Juniors have already contacted their former striker, and the main one has clearly opened the door to a comeback. Everything depends on him, summarizes the media, insofar as neither Elche nor OM will put too many obstacles in the way of a return to the country of the 31-year-old striker. TyC Sports specifies for his part that negotiations between the clubs have not yet started, while Marca explains that it would be a priori a loan of one year for the Argentinian.

” Stay for a long time ? We’ll see. If Elche does lift the call option, I will be very happy to stay, but you also have to see the financial question, my contract with Marseille and how much my transfer would cost. It is not an easy question and it is a subject to be taken into account. We will see when the time comes. I don’t know how long I’ll be staying here. My loan contract says that I have to spend the season here and, at the end of the season, we will see how my adventure at the club continues ”, recently confided the attacker.
