Olympique de Marseille transfer activity

Olympique de Marseille continues to manage squad changes as the summer transfer window nears its conclusion, focusing on strategic signings and reducing the wage bill through player departures.

On the recruitment front, defender Jean-Clair Todibo has reportedly reached a verbal agreement to join Marseille from West Ham, having prioritized the move over interest from Monaco. However, the transfer remains contingent on Marseille reaching an agreement with the English club and completing further squad reductions. Regarding the goalkeeping position, manager Bruno Genesio has expressed confidence in Jeffrey De Lange following the departure of Geronimo Rulli.

Several players are linked with potential exits. The club has set a €22 million asking price for midfielder Quinten Timber amid interest from FC Porto and Premier League clubs. Academy winger Tadjidine Mmadi continues to attract interest from clubs including FC Utrecht and Troyes. While striker Amine Gouiri has faced interest from clubs such as Sevilla and Como, Genesio intends to retain him in the squad.

Internal leadership remains under Timothy Weah, who was named club captain succeeding Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
