Steve Mandanda, the French goalkeeper of Congolese origin who has been with Marseille since 2007, is being targeted by certain European clubs and is expected to leave during the upcoming summer transfer window. Marseille coach José Anigo addressed this possibility at a press conference, indicating that the squad may need renewal.
Anigo emphasized the importance of unity within the team, especially with five players aiming for the World Cup. He suggested that some players might be focused on individual performances to secure their places in the national team, but stressed the need for collective effort until the end of the season. However, he acknowledged that the squad might require changes in the summer, with some players seeking new challenges after being with the club for an extended period.
This statement suggests that Mandanda’s departure from Marseille is likely, given the need for squad renewal and his potential desire for a new challenge after many years with the club.
