Key Takeaways:

  • AS Roma has emerged as a leading contender to sign Mason Greenwood
  • Despite Greenwood’s previous public commitment to remain at Marseille, the club’s financial difficulties are forcing a summer sale
  • Olympique de Marseille are seeking a transfer fee of approximately €60m for Greenwood, with negotiations already ongoing

Financial Pressures Prompt Greenwood’s Potential Departure

Olympique de Marseille forward Mason Greenwood (24) has surfaced as a transfer target for AS Roma. Although Greenwood announced his intention to stay at the French club earlier this month, he is widely expected to depart in the coming weeks due to OM’s precarious financial position. Marseille’s extensive spending last summer, compounded by failure to secure UEFA Champions League football for next season, means the club must offload some of its top assets before the end of June.

AS Roma Open Talks as Greenwood Sets Serie A Preference

Greenwood, once of Manchester United, is viewed as Marseille’s most valuable player on the transfer market. While numerous clubs have reportedly shown interest in the English forward, it is understood that Greenwood prefers a move to Italian outfit AS Roma. Negotiations are already in progress, with Roma representatives reportedly engaging in discussions with Greenwood’s father.

Transfer Fee and Club Relations

Marseille is demanding a sum of around €60m for Greenwood’s signature. The rapport between the French club and Roma remains strong following Robinio Vaz’ transfer in January, a factor which may help facilitate the current talks.
