The Olympique de Marseille strengthened its summer staff with the arrival of Angel Gomes, an English offensive medium from the LOSC. The player expressed his satisfaction with the club’s sport project, highlighting the appeal of the new coach, the size of the stadium and the support of supporters as determining factors in his decision. Gomes, who has also received offers in England, is particularly enthusiastic about joining OM, especially because of the presence of his childhood partner, Mason Greenwood, with whom he shares a deep complicity. This recruit is part of OM’s strategy to build on promising and experienced young talent.
At the same time, the Phocéan club actively explores well-known offensive tracks, with a strong interest for Pierre-Emérik Aubameyang. The club reportedly offered a one-year contract to the Gabonese delantero, currently a free agent after his visit to Saudi Arabia. Despite his age (36 years), Aubameyang demonstrated excellent physical fitness and strong scoring ability in his last Saudi Pro League season, with 17 goals scored. His return to OM would have a particular emotional dimension, as he had already evolved under the club’s colours in the 2023/2024 season.
Aubameyang’s potential signature is part of OM’s desire to find an experienced and prolific attacker capable of supporting young talent and bringing real added value to high-level matches. This recruitment strategy, initiated by Pablo Longoria, aims to build a competitive and ambitious team, with technical players and eager to succeed. The arrival of Gomes and the possible signature of Aubameyang attest to OM’s commitment to the future and to remain among the best teams in France and Europe.
