Juventus sign Abdoulaye Dabo from Nantes for €500k

20 Minutes and Foot Mercato report that Serie A side Juventus have concluded an agreement to sign 20-year-old midfielder Abdoulaye Dabo from FC Nantes for €500k – Dabo will sign a 3-year contract with the Italian giants.

They were however willing to negotiate the fee down, which they have done successfully.

Dabo produced 2 assists in 16 matches for the Juventus U23s last season.

Dabo is the youngest player to ever sign a professional contract with Nantes, having done so at the age of 16.

Click:gold loan Auckland

Globoesporte report that Brazilian giants Flamengo have identified Lyon defensive midfielder Thiago Mendes as their priority target to replace Gerson, who joined Ligue 1 side Marseille for €20m earlier this summer.

Sporting Director Juninho several weeks ago had the following to say on initial interest from the Brazilian outfit: “There has not been any contact with Lyon, maybe they have spoken with his agent. In any case, we have no interest in loaning him.”

Globo claim that Flamengo have now made an official loan offer to Lyon – under contract with OL until 2024, Mendes is said to have indicated his desire to make the move – his agent is currently in contact with Juninho. Flamengo have confirmed that they are trying but are pessimistic about achieving a loan with Lyon, further making it clear that they would not be making a permanent bid offer at this stage.

After Rennes’ sizable additions of Lens defender Loïc Badé (21) and forward Kamaldeen Sulemana (19) of FC Nordsjaelland this summer, the Breton club could see a number of players leave Roazhon park in the coming weeks.

Le Parisien report Borussia Mönchengladbach had enquired as to the availability of left sided player Faitout Maouassa (23) but nothing concrete has emerged as yet. Celtic’s interest in full-back Sacha Boey (20), meanwhile, has stalled but other clubs remain keen while an agreement has yet to be found with Brest for midfielder James Léa Siliki (25). An offer from an Italian club for centre-back Nayef Aguerd (25) was also refused.

One incoming move set to be completed is that of Nimes and Norway left-back Birger Meling (26), with only a medical left to finalise as Bruno Génésio’s squad continues to take shape ahead of his first full season in charge as his Rennes side become France’s first Europa Conference representatives.

Marseille president Longoria confirms negotiations underway for full-backs Lirola and Wass

Over the course of this afternoon’s unveiling of new signings Cengiz Ünder and Luan Peres, president Pablo Longoria notably discussed Marseille’s current transfer dealings and potential arrivals.

The press conference, transcribed in RMC Sport, notably saw Longoria give updates on the club’s pursuit of fullbacks Pol Lirola – who already spent last season on loan with Marseille, from Fiorentina – and Valencia’s Daniel Wass. 

On negotiations for Pol Lirola

“For Pol, negotiations are underway with Fiorentina. In this market, things move along slowly for certain players. As always in a negotiation, you have to get to the point where everyone is happy.”

On Marseille’s pursuit of Daniel Wass

“We have a lot of respect for this player, who I know from my time at Valencia. There is an interest which we have made the player and Valencia aware of, but negotiations are difficult. Wass has just one year left on his contract, Valencia tried to extend it. We have to operate in respect of all the parties, not least one that I know well. Let’s wait and see what the possibilities are.”

Amine Gouiri will play as a centre-forward, not left-winger this season

Speaking in an interview with Le Dauphiné Libéré, OGC Nice attacker Amine Gouiri (21) confirmed that he has been told by manager Christophe Galtier that he will be playing as a centre-forward, rather than as a left-winger, this season.

“He confirmed to me that I will be playing centrally this season, which is encouraging because that is my preferred role.”

On staying at OGC Nice:

The most important thing is that for the first time in my career, last year, I was able to play matches consistently. I do not forget that it was my first real season in Ligue 1. I improved, but there are still a lot of aspects of my game to improve and I also want to work on my strong points.

On France:

Certainly Les Bleus are in the corner of my mind. It is up to me to continue to work, put everything into it to achieve it, because sometimes things can go quickly. There is serious competition for the positions up top, but maybe my versatility will help me in the future.
