lcfcnsk Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 https://le10sport.com/football/mercato/exclu-mercato-om-debuchy-piste-par-lom-et-leicester-312999 OM did not let go the track leading to Mathieu Debuchy. But the former champion of England would have recently arrived in the race. Matched by Arsenal , who no longer counts on him, Mathieu Debuchy will probably leave the London club on the occasion of the summer transfer. According to our information, Olympique de Marseille , which took position some time ago, is still on the rows. The OM did not abandon the file and the contact is regularly maintained with the Debuchy clan . Debuchy leans towards Leicester? However, the Marseille executives have to face new competition in recent times. Indeed, Leicester recently approached the right rear tricolor. For the time being, it seems that Debuchy has two options. According to some indiscretions, it seems that the player leans slightly towards Leicester. But nothing would be definitely played out.

Bluearmyfox28 Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 Hard to have an opinion on Debuchy as I haven't seen him in action for so long!! Was a great player when playing for arsenal though, but I would imagine he's no where near the player he was so not overally convinced tbh. He's also 31 years of age. We should be looking for a young talented right back, Just like what we have in Chilwell who will be ready to take over from Fuchs in the next few years.

matty98 Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 Would be a really solid signing, quality right back who can attack and defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 Didn't realise he is 31. Given his recent injury record, it may be a bit of a risk to take him on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxes21 Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 think wenger blocked his transfer to man utd, so they fell out. he wanted to leave, wenger said no. I think debuchy would link up well with mahrez if he stays & he has a good cross on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 Does Simpson need replacing? He's out most consistent defender. This guy isn't needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's a replacement, it's more a back up. We have seen how bad Amartey is playing that position. We cannot afford to go into a season with just one out and out right back.

What about Pascanu or Johnson from the u23's.. Wishful thinking but could one of them be ready to make the step up like Chilwell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuna Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 Of course we need cover and competition, I'm not making that point, but we don't need Debuchy. He's old, expensive and can only play in one position. He's not going to want to come in to play a handful of games should Simpson get injured (Who has a good fitness record) or to replace him - as I said he's one of our most consistent players and doesn't need replacing. I'd rather we went for a young, up and coming full back who can learn from Simpson and provide cover and competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all means lets get a young guy for the future into the u23s but Debuchy is a really very decent player, only 31 (so a good 3 more years ahead) and there seems to be almost downside to this.

stevelcfc Posted 23 May 2017 Share Posted 23 May 2017 No tar. We do need a right back, but not one who's over the hill with a dreadful attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanity Posted 24 May 2017 Share Posted 24 May 2017 This is smart if the attitude is ok. We need to be shrewd about expenditures, and finding older talent on the cheap to plug holes at times is a solid strategy. Balance that with younger, aggressive signings to play on the youth team or loan out, plus a couple league-ready CBs and a MF, we will look ok.

lgfualol Posted 24 May 2017 Share Posted 24 May 2017 Would prefer someone younger but this guy can at least pass and isn't terrified of going beyond the half way line so he would be good competition for Simpson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
