‘Rey Midas’ Monchi does it again, with Lucas Ocampos

Monchi does it again. Just one year who returned to Seville, but the King midas world football has multiplied again the market value of various footballers, among which stands out Lucas Ocampos. The winger, international with Argentina since he is in Nervión, already 'costs' four times more than the 15 million euros that last summer was they paid for him Olympique de Marseille. Between 50 and 70 million is he value conferred by the CIES Observatory, specialized in statistics and in the market of the five big leagues.

Still 25 years old, Ocampos will be one of the candies of the next summer market. He has already scored 12 goals with Sevilla (10 in the League and two in the Copa del Rey) and is on the way to the best scoring figure of his entire career, the 16 targets that became the 2017-18 with the Olympique de Marseille between all competitions. In Nervión, in addition, he has accumulated three goal passes so far.

Lucas arrived to very young Europe, just 17 years old, from the River Plate Buenosairean. He was signed by Monaco for 13 million to lend it to Marseille three and a half seasons later, in the winter of 2015. That summer, the Olympique bought the footballer and later yielded a campaign to the Genoa Italian. Half a year later he went to Milan, where he would certainly coincide with Suso. After being important for two seasons at the Côte d'Azur club, Monchi decided to bet on him, very wisely.
