No idea. It might be true, it might be wrong. That said, we're speaking of OM and Nice, they are big names in L1, if that guy had wanted to make noise he would have mentioned another player rather than LJS who is unknown in France. http://www.au-premier-poteau.fr/manu-lonjon-le-buzz-ne-minteresse-pas This guy said in that article he is not interested in going viral.
I don't know but apparently, this guy is a reliable source and despite he's not a journalist, he has many connections in world football. He revealed that Benatia was about to sign with Juventus for instance. Then, many rumors about Korean players going to Ligue 1 have proven to be true in the past, so why not ? Then, it is just assumptions I've made, so we can't be sure at 100% whether it is true or wrong. We have to wait and see.
Yeah, after further investigation, he is our french Steve Han. He is considered by the French press as "very reliable", "well informed" and "mercato specialist". He unveiled many transfers before everyone, as I said before. So, I am starting to take this news very seriously even if I first was really sceptical when I saw it came from Twitter. It doesn't necessarily mean LJS will sign in one of these clubs (because he said he'd prefer staying in K League, for the moment before the WC) but there is a fair chance that these interests are real.
Ok so it's safe for us to speculate as a fan I'm assuming without people being a dick? If that's the case I don't know which team is the best for him. I like both. Also I think he should move this season, it might be his only opportunity.
If he is a reliable journalist then he would be the French Seo Ho-jung, not Steve Han. I can't take a journalist seriously when he says something like "I am the source" or gets into a Twitter beef over minuscule issues.
Sorry, I'm not really trying to attack you for using him as an example, but I can't take that guy seriously anymore. He is one of the two football news Twitter journalists that I don't follow anymore. (Both involved in ridiculous Twitter beefs)
Jeonbuk will demand a transfer fee of at least €2 million for Lee Jae-sung. I’d imagine both Marseille and Nice have the budget to match that price.— Steve Han • 한만성 (@realstevescores) January 12, 2018
2mln for one unproven player is out of reach for any low table team in any top division. Regardless of true interests or not. I don't count the EPL for obvious reasons.
I'd say, if they are truly interested and have scouted LJS often, 2 mio is okay. But if not, 1 mio should be a decent price.
