It appears that the future of Cameroonian defender Nicolas Nkoulou at Marseille is uncertain, as he is reportedly a target for several clubs in Europe. Nkoulou, who has played 3,314 minutes this season in Ligue 1 and played a significant role in Marseille’s second-place position, has attracted attention from various clubs.
In a press conference, André Pierre Gignac, Nkoulou’s teammate, spoke about the defender’s future. Gignac acknowledged Nkoulou’s exceptional skills on the pitch, describing him as a great player who deserves to be at the best European clubs. While Gignac expressed his desire for Nkoulou to stay at Marseille, he also recognized that the defender might aspire to move to a higher-profile club.
However, securing Nkoulou’s services won’t be easy, as Marseille has set a transfer fee of 20 million euros for the Cameroonian defender. This amount indicates the club’s valuation of the player and suggests that any potential suitor would need to meet this financial demand to acquire Nkoulou. The financial aspect adds an additional layer of complexity to the potential transfer.
