Marseille are reportedly willing to listen to offers for Moroccan midfielder Azzedine Ounahi amid interest from Saudi Arabia.
Olympique de Marseille is gearing up for a strategic reshuffle in the January transfer window, but financial constraints are a significant hurdle. The club's solution? Raising funds through player sales.
Central to this plan is Azzedine Ounahi, the 23-year-old midfielder whose potential was brought into the spotlight after a stunning World Cup performance with Morocco.

Marseille are interested in signing Saïd Benrahma from West Ham on loan in January
As the January 2024 transfer window approaches, Marseille's interest in Benrahma has become a topic of considerable speculation and strategic importance.
Ounahi: A valued asset amid financial constraints
Despite high hopes following his move from SCO Angers just under a year ago, Ounahi's journey with Les Phocéens hasn't been smooth sailing. A combination of injuries and frequent managerial changes has hindered his ability to make a significant impact at the Vélodrome.
Yet his value remains undiminished, particularly in Saudi Arabia. After a failed bid last summer, Saudi clubs are back in the game, already initiating talks for a possible transfer this January.
Marseille aren’t just stopping at Ounahi. They're casting a wider net to boost their financial arsenal. Pape Gueye, back from a long-term suspension, along with Vitinha, Luis Enrique, and Ismaïla Sarr, are all on the potential transfer list.
The club is open to reasonable offers for these players, indicating a willingness to significantly reshape their squad. Each player's future hangs in the balance, dependent on the offers that come knocking at Marseille's door this winter.
