Pablo Longoria, the president of Olympique de Marseille, has confirmed the club’s wish to renew the Senegalese international Pape Gueye.

Arrived in July 2020 at Olympique de Marseille from Le Havre, Pape Gueye still enjoys the confidence of its president Pablo Longoria. This despite a four-month suspension pronounced by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) which took effect at the beginning of August, in the context of the conflict between him and Watford. Indeed, while the Senegalese midfielder’s lease comes to an end next June, the Marseille leader announced that an extension of the Francilien was indeed in the pipeline.

“We are very happy with how Pape Gueye has returned from his loan to Sevilla FC. He has a very good mentality. We want to extend his contract, said the Marseille leader at a press conference. I don’t like having players at the end of their contract. We had a discussion with him and his agent and we have the feeling that this season he is going to be important despite everything. thus assured Longoria.
