I think you'll find that VM has the highest number of interfaces at LINX - 5 of which are 10G so plenty of capacity. They also already have multiple peering sessions with OVH at Amsterdam, Paris and Frankfurt and have had those for a number of years.

Also just to clarify, DTAG are not a VM Transit providor but a 10G Peer and there's plenty of capacity on it :-)

Need to bear in mind that VM are still running two ASNs - 5462 and 5089. The prefixes behind 5462 are in the process of being moved onto 5089 which is supposed to be completing by the end of this year. The two ASNs don't neccesarily have the same peering sessions in the same locations.
