Benfica and Rui Costa miss out on target, now on Marseille’s radar | OneFootball

Anis Hadj-Moussa is on Marseille’s wishlist. According to what has been gathered, the French club is keeping a close eye on the Feyenoord winger, who, during the summer transfer window, came very close to joining Benfica. However, the deal ultimately did not go through.

According to rumors circulating in the international press, the Ligue 1 club, which recently defeated PSG, is in the market looking to strengthen its attack, with the name of the Algerian winger being a consensus among Marseille’s management.

Thus, it is only a matter of time before Marseille submits an offer to Feyenoord’s management, a club that, during the summer transfer window, put up several obstacles for Benfica to close the negotiations for the Algerian winger, who was then a starter under Robin van Persie’s leadership.

It should be recalled that, during the summer, Benfica sat down on several occasions at the negotiating table, aiming to reach an agreement for Hadj-Moussa. However, the deal ultimately did not materialize, making the Algerian one of the failed transfers in the major investment carried out by Rui Costa.

This season, wearing the Feyenoord shirt, Anis Hadj-Moussa — valued at 20 million euros — has already played 23 official matches for the Dutch side: 15 in the Eredivisie, six in the Europa League, and two in the Champions League. In the 1,897 minutes he has been on the pitch, the Algerian has scored seven goals and provided three assists.
