This Sunday, Boubacar Kamara officially announced his departure from his training club Olympique de Marseille, at the end of his contract, in June. It remains to know where to go.
«I decided not to extend, to leave OM at the end of the season. It’s the best decision for the rest of my career.

If confirmed, this choice would be surprising when more prestigious clubs, such as Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid, are announced in the ranks. Recall, however, that Kamara would make the Premier League his priority. The presence of a legend like Steven Gerrard on the Villans bench can also be important, especially since the Englishman has moved in person to watch the 22-year-old at the Stade Vélodrome last month against FC Nantes (3-2).
Despite the difficulties encountered by his former teammate Morgan Sanson, who has not managed to impose himself since he made the Marseille-Birmingham trip in January 2021, the Marseillais could also say that the Villans constitute a good springboard allowing him to make his mark. a name in the Premier League, with the prospect of joining a big team fairly quickly in the event of good performance. The final outcome of this series should soon be known.
