Ounahi on his way out: a logical choice for OM?

There are deals that have been anticipated for a while... and that of Azzedine Ounahi is definitely one of them. Arriving in Marseille full of promise after his 2022 World Cup, our Moroccan midfielder never really found his place at the Vélodrome. Today, there's serious talk of an imminent departure to Girona in La Liga. So, good or bad deal for us? Let's discuss!

Girona, the right exit?

According to circulating information, Ounahi has already reached an agreement with Girona FC, and the Catalan club has made an official offer on the table: 8 million euros, which OM has been asking for from the start. Other clubs were keeping a close watch (Fiorentina, Lazio, Betis...), but apparently, it's Girona that managed to convince the player and his agent. It's understandable: La Liga is a fresh start, and Girona has shown they know how to integrate technical profiles like his. Would you have preferred to see him go to Serie A, or does La Liga suit his qualities better? Give us your opinion!

OM, between the need for money and squad management

Let's be honest: Ounahi only played a secondary role with us, despite his potential. The staff never managed to establish him permanently, and with a crowded squad, trimming was necessary. The 8 million asked seem reasonable for an international, especially since he hasn't broken out this season. This cash can help balance finances and prepare new moves in the market. But are we selling too quickly, or is it simply a pragmatic choice? Are we risking regretting a still young player who could break out elsewhere? We want your feelings on this!

What future for OM after Ounahi?

With Ounahi's departure, a spot opens up in the midfield. It could pave the way for a new recruit or give more playtime to the youth from the center. But we all know that in the midfield, OM must remain strong and creative. Will this transfer truly weaken our team, or is it a logical step in building a squad better suited to our ambitions? And above all, who do you see replacing him? Share your ideas in the comments, we want to debate!

Awaiting the outcome... and your reactions!

Negotiations are moving fast, and within a few days, Ounahi is expected to officially leave La Canebière to try his luck in Spain. We're keeping a close eye on this, and we're counting on you to share your analyses and outbursts. So, good or bad deal? Drop everything in the comments, the OM community awaits your opinions!
