Rare enough to be reported, theMarseille Olympic appears very calm, not to say absent, on the transfer market. Since the start of the summer, the Marseille club has only formalized the arrivals of Facundo Medina,
Timothy Weah And Hamed Traore following purchase options or obligations.
A very calm transfer window
On the departure side, the soap opera Mason Greenwood did not last long, the former England international having joined Fenerbahçe against 39 million euros. Traoré was loaned to Genoa, Aubameyang rushed to La Coruña while Bilal Nadir joined Hamburg
after leaving OM free. And since then? Not much. Bruno Genesio affirmed that we had to be patient, suggesting the arrival of some reinforcements by the end of the summer.
🔄Bayer Leverkusen will discuss again with OM for Facundo Medina this Tuesday. If he is part of a shortlist for this position, the Argentinian international’s name is in a good position.

Medina already gone?
In the meantime, the Riviera club could see one of its executives leave. After a first season with two faces, the first part marked by a major injury, the second by a rise in power, Facundo Medina
could already leave the Côte d’Azur. Selected for the World Cup withArgentinathe former Lensois even took part in five matches, including the final, and will not return until August 12 with the rest of the Olympian group.
Leverkusen in discussions
But in the meantime, he could head towards Germany. If we are to believe the information from PhocaeanTHE Bayer Leverkusen would have moved up a gear to afford the services of the Argentine defender. If Foot Mercato
specifies that the German club is targeting several profiles for this position, it is confirmed that new discussions must take place between the two clubs this Tuesday. Recruited for 18 million euros and under contract until 2030 with Ciel et Blanc, the 27-year-old defender figures in Bruno Genesio’s plans for the coming season. It remains to be seen whether he will still be in Marseille in three weeks.
