After being active in terms of arrivals, with the acquisitions of Mason Greenwood and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, OM will also move up a gear in terms of departures. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was sold to the Saudis of Al-Qadisiah and another striker is about to follow.
According to Foot Mercato, the Olympians will part ways with their Senegalese winger Ismaila Sarr. Just one year after his arrival from Watford, the latter is well on his way to returning to England.
OM refused a first offer
Sarr is on the verge of signing for Crystal Palace. The Eagles have made a €15 million offer for his services. The Olympian management has refused, but a proposal a few million higher is likely to seal the deal.
Between the Londoners and Sarr, however, everything is tied up. The player has given his agreement to his interlocutors. A contract until 2029 awaits him at Selhurst Park.
During his only year in Marseille, the former Rennes player played a total of 35 matches and scored 4 goals. A relatively meager record, which suggests that he will not be missed much by the Marseille fans.
