In recent days, corridor noises announced a resounding transfer: Mason Greenwood, author of a great first season in Ligue 1, would have been in the viewfinder of a large European club ready to formulate a substantial offer. This club was none other than Paris Saint-Germain. According to the Spanish press, PSG has even considered an offer of 75 million euros to attach the services of the English striker.
OM inflexible on the future of Greenwood
However, this information was quickly denied by several sources close to the two clubs. On the Marseillais side, the minute OM wanted to reassure the supporters by claiming that no offer was on the agenda. On the Parisian side, Djamel, well -known insider, also denied all contact between PSG and OM for Greenwood.
Mason Greenwood has become a key element of the Roberto de Zerbi project at OM. The Marseille club, aware of the importance of his attacker, has no intention of letting him go this summer, especially with a potential qualification in the Champions League.
A complicated transfer by contractual clauses
Another factor complicates any negotiation: in the event of sale, 50 % of the amount would return to Manchester United. OM should therefore require an astronomical sum to consider a departure.
If PSG has denied any interest, other major European clubs could try their luck. The Greenwood file promises to be a major soap opera of the next transfer window, with OM determined to resist the assaults for its offensive gem.
