Dortmund's rising star has agreed to terms with Marseille
Dortmund's talented striker Youssoufa Moukoko, who has expressed a desire to leave the club, has surprised many with his choice of new team. According to Fabrizio Romano, the young player's decision has fallen on Olympique de Marseille.
The 19-year-old forward received more than five offers from European clubs, but the key factor in his decision was the appeal of the project in Marseille, led by Roberto De Zerbi, former Brighton coach.
Marseille has already agreed to all personal contract terms with the player. The deal involves a loan with an option for a permanent transfer, and the clubs are currently negotiating the amount for the subsequent transfer.
Additionally, Marseille has previously finalized the transfers of Pierre-Emile Højbjerg from Tottenham, Mason Greenwood from Manchester United, and Ismaël Koné from Watford. The club is also monitoring Eddie Nketiah from Arsenal and Valentin Carboni from Inter, with the latter's transfer for 40 million already agreed.
