Olympique de Marseille is fully launched in this transfer window. After Geoffrey Kondogbia, the Phocaeans managed to recruit Renan Lodi, still at Atlético de Madrid. For this, it was necessary to pay 13 M€. It is far from over since it is now the offensive site that Pablo Longoria is attacking. Iliman N’Diaye should arrive in the coming days since we have revealed that an agreement in principle has been reached with the Sheffield United player.
While waiting to reach common ground with the Blades, other tracks are activated. Just yesterday, (Relevo revealed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was in the sights)(https://www.footmercato.net/a5904163903477658674-marseille-tente-le-gros-coup-pierre-emerick-aubameyang). According to the Spanish media, the Gabonese striker is appreciated by Marcelino, also specifying that the decision now belonged to the player, who is completely barred from the side of Chelsea, and invited to leave as soon as possible. This is also where OM have an advantage.
A high salary and a Saudi club on file
But all is not so simple for the French club. A transfer would not cost much as the Blues would favor his departure. The English press even mentions the possibility that the player will be released from his current contract. On the other hand, he receives a salary that is far too high for Olympian finances, around 180,000 euros… per week. Aubameyang would then have to make very big sacrifices to agree to join the Vélodrome.
Another snag. Despite his 34 years and the last complicated months, the former Stéphanois is courted elsewhere. If several doors have recently closed, Al-Ettifaq, led by Steven Gerrard, would like to bring him in. It goes without saying that the Saudi team has disproportionate means. But according to The Telegraph, a first loan offer with only 50% of salary covered is under consideration. This is not the offer that Chelsea dreamed of either. Otherwise, you will have to find a way to get rid of it.
