Aubameyang Marseille Return on the Cards After Saudi Departure
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is reportedly close to making a return to Europe, with Olympique Marseille leading the race to sign the free agent after his departure from Al-Qadsiah in Saudi Arabia.
The 36-year-old former Arsenal star had a prolific 2024/25 campaign in the Saudi Pro League, scoring 21 goals and registering 3 assists in 36 appearances across all competitions. However, his contract with Al-Qadsiah ended last month, and he is now actively exploring his next move.
Marseille in Talks with Aubameyang
According to Footmercato, via Sportal, Marseille have opened discussions with Aubameyang over a potential summer deal. The French giants are reportedly eager to bring the Gabonese forward back into their squad as they prepare for a busy campaign in Ligue 1 and Europe.
While no agreement has been finalized, sources close to the player confirm that Marseille are in a strong position due to Aubameyang’s past admiration for the club and his desire to return to a competitive European environment.
Multiple European Clubs Show Interest
The former Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona striker is said to have received multiple offers from across Europe, including interest from Turkey and Italy. However, Marseille’s project and familiarity with Ligue 1 could tip the scales in their favor.
Aubameyang is taking time to assess his options carefully before committing to what could be the final chapter of his storied career.
