According to La Provence, Samuel Gigot’s (30) time at Olympique de Marseille could be coming to an amicable end, with the central defender about to enter the final year of his contract in the south, and the club in need of sales to fund their new project.

Marseille reportedly want to reduce their wage bill while also bringing in recruits that would better help the club realise the tactical ambitions of their soon-to-be-announced manager: Roberto De Zerbi
