Marseille are stepping up their pursuit of Edon Zhegrova. The Kosovar winger, who has just one year left on his contract with Lille, is at the center of advanced talks between OM and LOSC.
Zhegrova to OM in the coming hours? The deal is close. The plan: a loan with an automatic purchase option set between €15m and €20m — a formula that suits everyone.
Initially sidelined this summer before being reinstated, the former FC Basel player has seen his stock rise since OM made their move. Determined to avoid losing him for free, as happened with Jonathan David, Lille want Zhegrova to extend his contract before the loan to secure the future transfer. The player, keen on the Marseille project, is ready to agree.
For OM, it’s the chance to strengthen immediately while delaying the major financial outlay. For Lille, it’s the promise of a significant payday and a well-managed case. Barring a twist, the deal could be sealed quickly — and give Marseille a real coup in the market.
