While the signing of Renan Lodi is imminent, Olympique de Marseille is working behind the scenes to strengthen its attacking sector. As such, we recently mentioned a particular interest from Marseille leaders for Iliman Ndiaye, a great architect of Sheffield United’s comeback in the Premier League with his 14 goals and 11 assists in 46 Championship games. Seduced by a return to his roots, the Senegalese international (7 caps, 1 goal) has reached an agreement with his training club for a 5-year contract. But the hardest part is yet to come for Pablo Longoria and company, who must now meet the financial demands of the promoted Englishman.
Provence indicates that the Blades do not want to give in so easily to the songs of the Marseille sirens and claim no less than 20 million for the 23-year-old striker whose contract with the residents of Bramall Lane will come to an end in June 2024. However, optimism is in force in this case insofar as the native of Rouen is unanimous within the management of Marseille.
