Longoria ready to record an unexpected sale in Marseille

The management of OM faces several hot issues to be settled as soon as possible. And one of his attackers could be sold this winter, provided he receives a satisfactory offer.

OM Mercato: Longoria ready to sell Bamba Dieng this winter

He’s one of the rare Olympique de Marseille players who hasn’t had much to reproach himself for this season. Author of an impressive start to the season in Ligue 1, Bamba Dieng asserts itself as the new revelation on the side of OM. And inevitably, his prowess does not go unnoticed. Party at the African Cup of Nations to defend the colors of his selection, Senegal, the young 21-year-old striker arouses the greed of several Premier League clubs, who wish to attract him to their ranks.

RMC Sport indeed reveals that Crystal Palace, Burnley, West Ham, or even Newcastle United have expressed their interest to Olympique de Marseille and the player’s entourage. Even if no concrete offer has been made for the moment, these concrete approaches from the British clubs have not been rejected by the Marseille management. On the contrary, OM would even be ready to sell their young Senegalese striker on one condition.

Marseille set a price for Bamba Dieng

In search of cash to replenish its coffers which are in the red, Olympique de Marseille does not close the door to the departure of Bamba Dieng. According to information from sports radio, the Marseille leaders would only ask for a check of around 10 million euros for his transfer. This amount seems more or less accessible to Premier League clubs, known for their financial strength.

And if no interested club has yet responded favorably to OM’s financial demands, the Marseille leaders are already working behind the scenes to find their possible successor. They recently activated the track leading to Gerard Deulofeu from Udinese. An unexpected sale of Bamba Dieng could therefore allow Marseille to finance its recruitment. However, nothing has been finalized in this case yet.
