Despite strong opposition from their fans and even the mayor, Ligue 1 Marseille will insist on completing a €30 million deal to bring in Mason · Greenwood from Manchester United. They are also interested in Arsenal's Eddie Nketiah and have made an offer of €25 million for it, but new boss De Zerbi is aiming for both!
Italy transfer expert Fabrizio · Romano revealed the progress of Aoki's transfer: "Marseille are still in talks with Greenwood over personal treatment, the wage structure is currently being discussed, and Manchester United have agreed to sell it for 30 million euros. Both the Marseille board and manager De Zerbi want the transfer to be completed and negotiations will continue."
Marseille are so confident about signing 22-year-old Aoki that they have already begun to prepare for an official announcement. That could lead to unrest, and Marseille is not a safe city in France with many activists, so the club must be prepared for a rainy day.
However, Serie A's Lazio have said they have not given up hope yet, with Blue Eagles sporting director Angelo · Fabiani confirming they are still in talks with Manchester United over the possibility of signing Mason Greenwood, which is not affected by Manchester United's agreement to Marseille's offer. Fabiani told All Markets: "We dealt with him last year and the club is still in contact with Manchester United. It's still controversial, but it's part of the football market, and the devil's advice will be eaten by foxes, but I'm not a fox."
Greenwood and his girlfriend Harriet · Robson this week released a footage of their daughter's birth and growth, hoping to build a good dad's image. Unfortunately, it was too late, the impact of the controversial pictures and audio in the past has been irreparable, and fans can only sigh that they knew why they were in the first place today......
Manchester United's sale of Aoki in the summer window is already a foregone conclusion, and they hope that he will accept Marseille's offer and end the dispute as soon as possible. If the Academy striker declines the offer, the club will continue to face a dilemma. He will certainly not be able to join Ten Hag's first-team squad for pre-season training and the Reds will have to find a way to arrange a proper training session for him.
Aoki returned to Carrington on Monday but did not train, only discussing the transfer with sporting director Dan · Ashworth and technical director Jason · Wilcox. Manchester United allowed him to postpone his return, so the player had to find his own practice ground with his father Michael and the "third prince" Shola· Shoretire, who had expired his contract with Manchester United.
This is not a long-term solution, as the PFA Professional Players' Union is often opposed to any player leaving the first team for individual training. While FIFA does not prohibit clubs from arranging for players to train individually, the FIFPRO Players Association does not accept players from training alone unless they are injured or sick. Therefore, if Aoki rejects Marseille, then United will have to have a discussion about his training.
One of the things that could displease Aoki with Marseille's conditions is that the team will not be able to qualify for Europe next season, so if Lazio make an offer that United can accept, it could be a variable, and the player could choose them, and the Serie A side can play in the Europa League next season.
However, given the current situation, where Greenwood will go will soon have an end, and it would be a relief that a decision could be made as early as Friday to end this farce that has lasted more than two years and restore calm to Manchester United.
