Marseille Pushes for Rapid Transfer of Luis Henrique
Olympique de Marseille is reportedly eager to finalize the sale of Brazilian winger Luis Henrique, 23, before the current season concludes. Despite a strong start to the campaign that helped propel Marseille towards Champions League qualification, Henrique’s recent form has dipped, drawing criticism from both the manager and fans.
Nevertheless, several European clubs have expressed interest in acquiring the talented player. Bayern Munich, Nottingham Forest, and Newcastle United are among the potential suitors, with Inter Milan currently leading the race for his signature.
Inter Milan is keen to complete the transfer before their Club World Cup campaign begins on June 18th. Meanwhile, Marseille faces a deadline of June 30th to present a balanced budget for the upcoming season to French football’s financial regulatory body.
Marseille is reportedly seeking over €30 million for Henrique, who joined the club in 2020. The swift conclusion of this transfer would help the French side meet their financial obligations while allowing the player to embark on a new chapter in his career.
