Official: Sevilla sign Marseille striker Neal Maupay on loan

Marseille forward Neal Maupay will continue his career at Sevilla.

Details: Spanish side Sevilla and French club Marseille have reached an agreement for the loan of 29-year-old Neal Maupay until the end of the current season. The deal also includes an option to buy the Frenchman on a permanent basis.

Let’s recall that Maupay made his Ligue 1 debut at just 16 years old, becoming one of the youngest players in French top-flight history. After impressive spells with Saint-Étienne and Brest, Maupay moved to England, where he made a name for himself at Brentford and Brighton.

This move is seen as a chance for the striker to relaunch his career and rediscover the goal-scoring form he showed in England, since things haven’t really clicked for him at Marseille. This season, the Frenchman has made just three appearances for Marseille, but did manage to score once – in the Coupe de France round of 32 against Bayeux FC.

Reminder: Quinten Timber completed his transfer from Feyenoord to Marseille.
