Finishing fifth in the league standings and subsequently missing out on the highly lucrative UEFA Champions League has placed Olympique de Marseille in a precarious financial position.

The significant revenue shortfall resulting from their absence in Europe’s premier club competition is compelling the Provençal club to prioritize player sales during this summer transfer window. Indeed, this off-season could well transform into a major clear-out for OM, as they find themselves in a weak negotiating position and are under pressure to part ways with their most valuable assets.

The most prominent departure expected is undoubtedly Mason Greenwood. The talented British forward had previously expressed his desire to continue his journey in Ligue 1, but he is now reportedly on the verge of joining AS Roma, who have made him a top target to bolster their attacking options.

Gouiri also set to depart?

Another crucial figure from the attacking department could also be packing his bags. Indications suggest that Amine Gouiri might be leaving Olympique de Marseille this summer.

Having arrived a year and a half ago from Stade Rennais, the Algerian international has garnered favor with the club’s new sporting director, Grégory Lorenzi, who reportedly holds a strong appreciation for his technical prowess. However, the executive is said to have resigned himself to considering offers for his center-forward, should an enticing proposal materialize.
