The Olympique de Marseille is actively continuing to build its workforce for next season, with a strategy focused on improving overall quality. The club targets the winger Edoon Zhegrova of LOSC, with concrete discussions underway for a transfer. At the same time, OM sought to separate three attackers, Neal Maupay, Amine Harit and Faris Mumbagna, in order to rebalance the force under the direction of Roberto De Zerbi. The arrival of Zhegrova, a fast, technical and decisive player, is seen as a valuable reinforcement for the competition on the right side with Mason Greenwood, and is part of De Zerbi’s desire for a flexible offensive system.

OM’s most notable summer recruit is Timothy Weah, whose transfer is estimated at €20 million (loan with option of purchase and bonus). Yasine Youssif, OM consultant, salutes the player’s potential, highlighting his versatility and his ability to adapt quickly to the League 1. However, the price is slightly overvalued. Weah’s versatility, able to play in several offensive positions, is particularly appreciated by De Zerbi, who likes to change his systems. His experience in Ligue 1 could allow him to quickly join the team.

OM is intensifying its efforts to get on with Zhegrova, who wants to leave LOSC despite his current contract until 2026. The player, who has made 26 goals and 18 assists since his arrival, perfectly matches De Zerbi’s profile, bringing direct competition to Greenwood on the right flank. OM is negotiating with Lille on the terms of the transfer, as part of its desire to strengthen its workforce for the Champions League. The club wants to finalize this reinforcement quickly, while being aware of the cost of the operation.
