The Marseilles market is not quite closed.

Amir Murillo, OM’s new full-back, may not have closed the Olympians transfer window. A few hours before the market closes, one more file is about to be finalized in Marseille: the exchange of Isaak Touré with Hake Bamo Méïté, which arrived in Marignane Thursday evening from Lorient. But the former colossus from Le Havre may not be the last Phocaean to leave the ship this summer.

The rumor is insistent these days about Azzedine Ounahi, debauched from the side of Angers this winter after a breathtaking World Cup with Morocco. After having benefited from the confidence of Marcelino at the very start of the season – in a misuse nevertheless, as a left winger – the Lion of the Atlas lost credit very recently, left on the bench all the match during against Metz and Brest in the league.

According to insider Mohamed Toubache-Ter, close to the SCO and its former elements in particular, the ex-Angevin is on the shelves of RC Lens, ready to jump at the end of the transfer window if the opportunity is good. Very close to formalizing the arrival of Monegasque full-back Ruben Aguilar, the club vice-champion of France would like to strengthen its offensive sector in the perspective of the Champions League. English, Spanish and Saudi formations – where the market remains open for another week – are also in ambush.
