Saber Khlifa, the recent acquisition for Marseille, is anticipated to undergo his medical examination by tomorrow at the latest before finalizing his contract. The former Evian striker expressed his honor at the prospect of joining Marseille and conveyed his readiness to embrace the challenges that come with being part of the Phocaeans.
In an interview with RMC, the Tunisian international shared his sentiments: “Marseille is a great club, and it will be an honor to be part of its squad. I don’t know what happened between Evian and Montpellier. I was in Tunisia to resolve a family problem, and I am not aware of it. I respect the Evian-Thonon-Gaillard club a lot because I am here thanks to them. (…) It’s a new professional path and a very important step in my life. I have to work harder to honor this team and win big titles with them.”
The expected agreement is a four-year commitment, with Senegalese player Modou Sougou making a one-season loan move in the opposite direction. The transfer represents a significant juncture in Khlifa’s professional journey, and he is determined to contribute to the success of Marseille and compete for major titles with the team.
