Alexis Sanchez would be the preferred option of one of the leaders of Olympique de Marseille to strengthen the Marseille attack this summer.

Olympique de Marseille once again finds itself faced with the pressing need to recruit a top striker. Indeed, the departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Al-Qadsiah, after a remarkable season in Marseille colours (30 goals and 11 assists in 51 matches), leaves a huge void in the Marseille squad.

Two profiles nevertheless stand out in the race to succeed the Gabonese striker, Eddie Nketiah and Alexis Sanchez. According to rumors, however, it is the English striker who would be the priority for this position.

Benatia is pushing hard

But a return of the Chilean is not to be excluded either. The club’s sports advisor, Mehdi Benatia, would campaign in favor of a comeback of Sanchez, according to information from Provence.

As a reminder, El Niño Maravilla joined OM as a free agent in the summer of 2022, after the end of his contract with Inter Milan. During his only season with the Ciel et Blanc, the Tocopilla native scored 18 goals and provided 3 assists in 44 appearances.
