Olympique de Marseille is heading into a high-stakes summer. Barely appointed this Wednesday morning after weeks of waiting, Bruno Genesio already knows he is not arriving at a calm club. The new Marseille coach wants to “build a squad that matches the ambitions of Olympique de Marseille.” But before building, the club will first need to sell.
The new OM management is determined to wipe the slate clean. In Marseille, the message is clear: no one is truly untouchable. In front of the DNCG, the club’s leadership mentioned several outgoing transfers expected during the 2026–2027 season. The problem is that, unlike other monitored clubs, OM has not yet completed any major sale.
Key Players Targeted for Departure
According to L’Équipe, new director Grégory Lorenzi has already identified several players to sell as a priority. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Amine Harit, Neal Maupay and Ulisses Garcia are reportedly among those on the list.
The objective is simple: generate cash, reduce the wage bill and ease the club’s financial pressure. Marseille wants to avoid contract terminations, which are seen as a last-resort solution to relieve finances.
The task ahead looks massive for Bruno Genesio. The French coach arrives with ambition, but his squad could be heavily reshaped in the coming weeks. Several key or experienced players could leave if suitable offers arrive. At OM, the transfer window promises to be explosive. Before dreaming of new signings, Marseille must first make room—and this summer, anything can happen on the Canebière.
