Having been Olympique de Marseille’s standout performer over the past two seasons, Mason Greenwood appears to be the primary candidate for a departure as the summer transfer period approaches. It’s clear that OM is under pressure to generate sales, and the 24-year-old winger currently holds the highest market value within the squad, with the specialized platform Transfermarkt estimating his worth at €55 million.

“If an opportunity arises, it will certainly be considered”

During his initial public statement, Olympique de Marseille’s new sporting director, Grégory Lorenzi, inevitably faced questions regarding Greenwood’s future. For those who had doubts, it now seems the English forward is indeed nearing an exit. Lorenzi affirmed, “He is among the players who are subject to significant deliberation. If an opportunity arises, it will certainly be considered.” He further elaborated, “However, there is the club’s position, the player’s position, and it is also up to us to manage it internally and find the best possible solution for all parties involved.”

OM’s initial roadblock for Roma

But where might he go? In recent days, Italian media has extensively covered the interest from AS Roma, whose management is keen to secure a major signing for Gian Piero Gasperini following their Champions League qualification. While La Gazzetta dello Sport indicated that the father of the OM star was already engaging in discussions with the Italian club, a deal does not appear imminent. Meanwhile, TMW cast a shadow over the potential transfer of Mason Greenwood, revealing that Olympique de Marseille is demanding a minimum of €50 million and has already informed the Roman club of its firm intention not to negotiate this valuation downwards.
