Shock summer exit? Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang faces uncertain future at Marseille

Olympique de Marseille could face a significant squad reshuffle this summer, with Gabon international striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang among several high-profile players who may depart the French club.

According to the French daily L’Équipe, Marseille are preparing for a possible wave of exits at the end of the season as the club reassesses its squad following managerial changes and financial considerations.

The current group of players had largely been assembled under former head coach Roberto De Zerbi, whose tenure has since come to an end.

With the club now entering a new phase, Marseille’s leadership is believed to be open to selling several of its highest-earning players during the upcoming transfer window.

The situation could affect a number of key figures within the squad, including Aubameyang, whose future at the club may now be uncertain despite being one of the team’s most recognisable attacking options.

Another player attracting attention is Mason Greenwood.

Reports suggest the forward is strongly linked with a move to clubs in Saudi Arabia, where financially lucrative offers have become increasingly common for players competing in European leagues.

If such a transfer were to materialise, it would mark one of the most notable departures from Marseille’s attacking line-up.

Greenwood has been one of the club’s headline names and his potential exit would likely signal the beginning of a wider restructuring within the team.

Other senior members of the squad could also be affected.

Goalkeeper Gerónimo Rulli, who previously played for AFC Ajax, is among the players reportedly considered for a possible sale.

Midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia has also been mentioned as a potential departure as Marseille evaluate their wage bill and long-term squad strategy.

Aubameyang, meanwhile, remains one of the club’s most experienced forwards, but he is not expected to be exempt from the changes under discussion.

His contract, like those of several teammates, runs until 2027, meaning Marseille would still be able to command a significant transfer fee should the club decide to part ways with the Gabon international.

Whether Marseille secure qualification for the UEFA Champions League or not, the coming transfer window could prove decisive for the club’s direction.

The potential exits of several established players suggest the French side may soon begin a new chapter with a reshaped squad.
