Pierre-Emerik Aubameyang’s return to the Olympique de Marseille (OM) seems to be taking place quickly. According to information from Foot Mercato, an agreement for a two-year contract is being negotiated. This potential experienced recruit could thus find the Canebière, a perspective that arouses a lot of enthusiasm among Marseille fans. OM and the Gabonese striker are engaged in advanced discussions, with a proposed contract extending until June 2027.

However, this signature is conditional on the termination of Aubameyang’s current contract with his Saudi club, Al-Qadsiyah. Until such termination is formally formalized, OM, like other interested clubs, cannot sign. Aubameyang had already made a difference in his previous season in Marseille, with 30 goals in 51 games, and his involvement and popularity with fans facilitated this possible reintegration.

In a workforce in the midst of reconstruction under the leadership of Roberto De Zerbi, Aubameyang’s experience and quality of finishing could prove to be a major asset, particularly with a view to participating in the Champions League. The next few hours will be crucial for confirming this transfer. If everything goes as planned, the Vélo-drome could welcome a well-known player to reinforce his attack. It should be noted that some observers believe that OM could find younger and cheaper profiles.
