Marseille new O’Riley competition for Juventus, Roma and Atalanta | OneFootball

Juventus, Atalanta and Roma have fresh competition for Brighton and Hove Albion midfielder Matt O’Riley, with reports in Denmark of an Olympique Marseille offer.

The player has long been on the radar of numerous Serie A sides, as he was very close to Atalanta last season.

La Dea remain among those interested, although Juventus and Roma would appear to be more focused on him so far this summer.

However, they might all be forced to miss out, because Danish website Bold report that Olympique Marseille are making O’Riley one of their primary candidates.

The Ligue 1 side can splash the cash following Champions League qualification and is boosting the squad for Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi.

Brighton and Hove Albion paid €29.5m to buy the midfielder from Celtic only a year ago, so any sale would be for a profit on that transfer.

His previous clubs include Fulham and MK Dons.
