The transfer of Ruslan Malinovskyi from Atalanta to Marseille became a real transfer bomb in France. First of all, this was influenced by the fact that good footballers rarely move to Ligue 1, especially when they have the option of continuing their career in England or staying in the same Italy.
"Marseille" wanted to buy Malinovsky for a long time, but it is no secret that Ruslan had the opportunity to move to the Premier League. Therefore, it was important for the French that Malinowski agreed to play in the local championship. In addition, they sincerely believe that the Ukrainian, who scored impressive goals for the top clubs in Italy, will be able to strengthen the team and League 1.
To understand how happy Marseille fans are, it is enough to look at the most positive opinion on the popular website L'Equipe, where there are 220 positive reviews under the comment about Malinowski - "Super player". And journalists positively evaluated this transition, writing many different materials about the Ukrainian football player.
Ruslan Malinovskyi in a "Marseille" T-shirtJacques: A very good player who was not given a chance to prove himself 100% in Italy. For Marseille, this is a top transfer, one can only applaud the club's management, which was able to persuade Malinovsky to move to France.
Yoann: Malinowski has a phenomenal shot from long range. All Serie A goalkeepers were afraid of this player, because the Ukrainian does not just hit hard, often the ball flies in an unusual trajectory, so it is difficult to stop him. I hope we will soon see Ruslan scoring goals like this for Marseille.
Guittet: Fans of one Qatari club, which for some reason plays in Paris, are already laughing at Malinovsky's transfer. I would not comment on the opinion of these idiots at all, but I will say it anyway. If PSG did not have dirty money and such great political influence, they could only dream of players of Malinowski's level. Everyone remembers what a miserable club PSG was 15-20 years ago.
Yass: When I read the opinions of the "experts" on the pretext that Marseille bought a player who was sitting on Atalanta's bench, it makes me laugh. Cristiano Ronaldo sat in the reserve of Manchester United, Messi could not play for PSG for a long time, and so on. There are many different nuances why a strong football player may not play in his team. All of Italy knows about Malinowski's strengths, but in France, some people decided to reveal their limitations once again.
Copeau: Malinowski refused to renew his contract with Atalanta, so he stopped playing on the field. Everything is very simple. It is not necessary to invent anything and say that Malinowski had problems. There were absolutely no gaming problems. He was both a great football player and remained one.
Dalver: Never thought I'd say this, but I like the way Marseille have been negotiating lately. Few believed that it would be possible to sign Malinovsky, but he is already taking pictures in our club's t-shirt. I think that this is the right step for a Ukrainian, and he will soon understand it himself.
Morvan: Welcome to the best French club. When Marseille sign players of Malinowski's caliber, it shows the ambition of our club. We don't just have to fight for the European Cups, "Marseille" is simply obliged to compete with PSG in the fight for the championship title.
Richomme: I think everyone has seen Malinowski's incredible long shots. His goals were a true decoration of Serie A. We want to believe that he will score even more beautiful goals in League 1. Well, we wish Malinovsky to adapt as soon as possible not only in the club, but also in the city. It also has its nuances, which all Marseille residents know about.
Lady: Malinowski could well stay at Atalanta and extend his contract. I read that "Inter" and "Milan", "Tottenham" and "Arsenal" showed interest in him. Everyone understands that League 1 is not the English Championship, but I think Malinowski realized that he needs to play consistently now, he needs practice and he needs a club that believes in him. Therefore, the move to Marseille is an excellent decision for all parties.
Talvat: Finally, "Marseille" bought a really strong player who can become one of the stars of our championship. I will not be surprised if in a year PSG will offer a bag of money for Malinowski, who will show himself perfectly in France at that time.
Garald: He is a great player, everyone knows about him and has seen his goals. But recently he stopped playing consistently for Atalanta. Therefore, Malinowski needs to get in shape as soon as possible and start to benefit Marseille.
Capri: Malinowski has an incredible left-footed shot. When he hits the ball, it flies like a rocket along an unpredictable trajectory. I can't wait for the moment when I can see these kicks of the Ukrainian football player live.
Email: A super player for a super club! The team really needed such a player to play more effectively in the attack and in the center of the field. Malinowski's transfer is a good sign for other high-level players. "Marseille" is not just alive, it is ready to fight for the championship title!
Milon: "Marseille" does not have bloody billions and friends in UEFA to spend inadequate amounts on Messi and Mbappe. Therefore, yes, for our club, the transfer of Malinowski is a big event. Parisian lovers of Arab money no longer remember being happy when they managed to lure a strong player from a strong championship who was not a world-class star. But in Marseille, they know how to appreciate what we have.
God: Malinowski must understand that everyone at Marseille expects a bright and productive game from him. The club is confident that the Ukrainian will be able to help us get to the Champions League at the end of the season. That's why Malinovsky has to justify trust. Or he will be the main disappointment of the season. "Marseille" has demanding fans, and Ruslan will soon understand this.
Gaborit: A very good player. He played very brightly in Genk and had a great start in Atalanta. But he needs a coach who will use him correctly on the field, who will believe in him and close his eyes to some mistakes. Then Malinovsky will play very brightly and spectacularly.
Ikal: Potentially, Malinowski can become the main star of "Marseille". If he plays the way he played at times for Atalanta, he will soon become a fan favorite. I hope that Malinovsky himself does not consider moving to Marseille a step backwards and really believes in our club.
Verum: A great player who still has to prove his high level in France, but for some reason I have no doubts that Malinowski will very soon start to please us with his impressive shots and beautiful goals.
Momo: Malinowski is a fantastic player, but it is very important that he adapts quickly to France. Marseille is not Bergamo, there is a completely different rhythm of life, there are completely different fans, which can really get boring. Malinowski comes in as a star, so he should be prepared for increased attention from fans and journalists.
Oulai: Malinowski is a great football player, the new star of the club! Until the end, I did not believe that we would be able to persuade him to go to Marseille. According to his potential, this football player can play in the best clubs in the world, but he needs a coach who believes in him. I think that in "Marseille" Malinovsky will show a bright and spectacular game.
