Striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang should make a good start with Olympique de Marseille in the coming hours.
Olympique de Marseille finally holds its “grantatakan”. After the arrivals of Geoffrey Kondogbia and Renan Lodi, the Marseille club is about to achieve a huge blow by attracting striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. If the Gabonese international is 34 years old, his arrival at OM would confirm his desire to always evolve at the high level, while he was also courted in Saudi Arabia.
Unless there is an unlikely turnaround, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang should therefore play for Olympique de Marseille from this 2023-24 season. According to information from Fabrizio Romano, an agreement has been reached by the various parties. The operation, which would be valued at 6 million euros in terms of transfer compensation, would already be completed. Aubameyang will definitely leave Chelsea to sign a three-year contract with OM.
Aubameyang will be an Olympique de Marseille player!
The Gabonese striker is called to go to Germany to join Marcelino and his workforce, currently in training camp on the other side of the Rhine. He will then pass the traditional medical visit prior to the signing of his contract.
It remains to be seen whether the arrival of Aubameyang definitively marks the end of Alexis Sanchez’s adventure on the Canebière. It seems hard to imagine that these two world-renowned strikers could coexist economically. Having worked for Borussia Dortmund, Arsenal, FC Barcelona and even Chelsea, “Aubame” will bring all his very high level experience to his teammates, like Alexis Sanchez last season.
