Midfielder Luiz Gustavo has left Olympique Marseille to join Fenerbahçe, said Sunday the president of the club Phocaean, Jacques-Henri Eyraud.
"We found an agreement with the club", announced "JHE" in the mixed zone after the victory of his club against Saint-Étienne (1-0) on behalf of the 4th day of Ligue 1.
The 32-year-old Brazilian should be sold to the Istanbul club for 7 million euros, according to La Provence, after lengthy negotiations to reach an agreement on a price.
Gustavo "really asked me to leave," said Eyraud. It's hard to have a player who wants to go somewhere else. But I think he wanted to live another experience. He is in Turkey, (…) it is likely that Luiz starts the next days with Fenerbahçe ". Luiz Gustavo arrived at OM in 2017 and played 98 matches. He achieved a brilliant first season, reaching the final of the Europa League, and a more difficult second, where he was often lined up in central defense.
