Marseille identify Mason Greenwood successor

Olympique de Marseille are already preparing for a significant reshuffle in their attacking department, with Mason Greenwood among those whose future remains uncertain as the summer transfer window approaches.

Uncertainty continues to grow around several key figures at the club.

Earlier this month, we covered reports that Mason Greenwood was set for a potential move to Saudi Arabia, placing his Marseille future firmly in doubt.

That uncertainty has only intensified.

Marseille are also dealing with structural changes, with departures among key figures, while former manager Roberto De Zerbi has now been announced as the new Tottenham Hotspur manager.

As a result, planning for replacements is already underway behind the scenes.

According to GOAL, the French side have now identified a potential successor should Mason Greenwood depart in the coming months.

The club are targeting a profile capable of delivering both creativity and end product in the final third.

A name has begun to emerge more prominently in recent discussions.

It is Nene Dorgeles.

The Malian forward has impressed with his performances, showcasing versatility across attacking positions along with consistent goal contributions.

Notably, back in January 2025, Manchester United made contact with RB Salzburg regarding Dorgeles before his eventual move to Fenerbache, highlighting long-standing interest in his development.

This season, the 23-year-old winger has scored eight goals in the Turkish Super Lig, including a hat-trick in his most recent game for Fenerbache before the international break.

Marseille now view him as a strong candidate to fill a potential gap in their attack.

However, the deal is not expected to be straightforward.

Dorgeles remains under a long-term contract and is valued at around €25 million, a figure that could prove challenging given Marseille’s financial considerations.

There is also competition from other clubs monitoring his his progress.

For Marseille, much will depend on how the former Manchester United attacker’s situation unfolds in the coming weeks, but the groundwork is already being laid for a possible transition.

With changes ongoing both on and off the pitch, the club appear determined to act early in shaping their next attacking line.
