Alexandre Tunkadi: Marseille B playmaker linked with switch to FC Emmen

Marseille B attacking midfielder Alexandre Tunkadi is being linked with a move to Dutch side FC Emmen in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie.

The 20-year-old, who represents both France and DR Congo at youth level, is currently contracted to Olympique de Marseille’s reserve side in National 3 Group H, but data from Transfermarkt lists his contract expiry as unknown – raising the prospect he could become a free agent if no new deal is agreed. The reported probability of the transfer remains unclear and is currently marked as “?”.

Tunkadi, a left-footed attacking midfielder standing at 1.83m, has been developing within Marseille’s B set-up, where he is registered as an attacking midfield specialist. Born on 20 October 2005, he has time on his side as he seeks a first move into senior professional football outside France.

Any deal is likely to be shaped by his current market valuation status. Transfermarkt records no official market value for Tunkadi (listed as “None”), a factor that may encourage Emmen to view the move as a low-risk opportunity, particularly if his situation at Marseille allows him to move as a free agent or for a minimal fee.

No recent competitive first-team statistics or detailed match performances are recorded in the available data, with Tunkadi’s recent activity logged solely at Marseille B level and for their reserve competition in France.

Tunkadi is yet to appear for a senior national team but holds dual nationality with France and DR Congo, which could keep future international options open if he can establish himself in a stronger league.

A switch from National 3 in France to the Dutch second tier would represent a significant step up in competitive level and visibility, and if the Emmen move materialises it could be a pivotal moment in shaping his early career trajectory and long-term potential in European football.
