At OM, Billel Omrani’s playing time was expected to be minimal, leading to his loan move to Ligue 2 club Arles-Avignon. The young striker, of Algerian origin, has been loaned by Olympique de Marseille to Provence FC for one season without a purchase option. Omrani aims to gain more playing time in Ligue 2 and hopes to follow a path similar to that of André Ayew, who started at a lower level before becoming a key player for Marseille. Last season, Omrani played only 26 minutes in Ligue 1 for Marseille.
