Olympique Marseille have identified Ajax forward Brian Brobbey as a prime target to fill the void left by Elye Wahi, who is reportedly on the verge of joining Eintracht Frankfurt.
The 22-year-old Dutch striker has caught the attention of Marseille’s management, who are keen on bolstering their attacking options without overspending.
Wahi, signed from RC Lens in a €30 million deal last summer, appears set for a quick departure from Stade Vélodrome just six months into his tenure. With his potential exit imminent, Marseille are scouring the market for a reliable number nine to spearhead their attack.
Brian Brobbey, valued at €30 million by Transfermarkt, has emerged as a strong contender, though Marseille are also considering other options. The Ligue 1 club remains cautious about splashing out excessively for a new striker, preferring a balanced approach in their pursuit of reinforcements.
Marseille’s decision will hinge on the finalization of Wahi’s departure, but Brobbey’s combination of youth, talent, and proven pedigree in front of goal makes him a tantalizing prospect for the French side.
