- American ending two-year spell in إيطاليا
- Return to الدوري الفرنسي 1 was always his preference
- Deal agreed ahead of medical in فرنسا
ال متحد States international is ready to return to France after two years in Turin. He has previously represented باريس سان جيرمان and Lille in Ligue 1, while also spending time on loan at Scottish giants سلتيك in 2019.
A new challenge is being sought after failing to nail down a starting berth at Juve. They have been open to offers across the summer transfer window, with an opportunity to join نوتنغهام فورست in the Premier League being passed up at one stage.
Weah is said to have made it clear that his preference was always to retrace steps to French football. The 25-year-old is about to get his wish as Marseille have an offer on the table that is considered acceptable by all concerned.
Transfer guru فابريزيو رومانو says: “Tim Weah to Olympique Marseille, here we go! Deal verbally agreed now also with يوفنتوس. Understand package will be €1m loan fee, €14m obligation to buy, add-ons and sell-on clause. Weah only wanted Marseille, just waiting for green light to travel.”
A €15 million (£13m/$17m) deal will see Weah link up with former مانشستر يونايتد forward Mason Greenwood at Stade Velodrome. He will sever ties with Juventus after taking in 78 appearances for the الدوري الإيطالي heavyweights.
