Marseille Eyes Barcelona Starlet Roony Bardghji as Mason Greenwood Nears Exit
Olympique de Marseille are actively restructuring their squad under newly appointed manager Bruno Genesio during a crucial summer transfer window. Navigating strict UEFA Financial Fair Play regulations, the French club must balance their books while simultaneously delivering high-profile reinforcements to satisfy their ambitious tactical plans.
The Ligue 1 side is bracing for the departure of 24-year-old winger Mason Greenwood, who is reportedly nearing a historic €50 million move to Turkish giants Fenerbahce. Greenwood's imminent sale would mark the biggest departure in Marseille history, while midfielder Hamed Junior Traore is also close to securing a Serie A return with Genoa.

To replace these outgoing stars, Marseille have reignited their interest in Barcelona's 20-year-old winger Roony Bardghji, according to Spanish outlet Sport. The Swedish prodigy, who moved to Catalonia in January 2025, has struggled for consistent game time due to the rise of Lamine Yamal and the imminent arrival of Karim Adeyemi.
While Stade Velodrome offers an appealing destination for Bardghji to revive his career, Marseille faces fierce competition from several European clubs. Premier League and Championship sides including Aston Villa, Brighton, Sunderland, and Leeds are monitoring the youngster, alongside Porto, Ajax, and multiple La Liga clubs.
