Marseille confident of bringing in William Saliba at the end of the transfer window

William Saliba was loaned by Marseille from Arsenal last season.

JAKARTA -- French club Marseille are confident of bringing in Arsenal defender William Saliba at the end of the transfer window to play in Ligue 1. Saliba spent last season on loan at Marseille, where he quickly became a regular despite his young age.


The France international plays with the maturity of a seasoned professional, even though he is only 21 years old. His performances last season earned him his first France call-up, and understandably, Marseille will want to keep him ahead next season.


According to l'Equipe's report, as quoted by Caught Offside , Thursday (28/7/2022), Marseille remain optimistic that they will be able to sign the Arsenal defender at the end of the transfer window.

Mikel Arteta has taken advantage of Saliba in recent friendlies. However Saliba does have some stiff competition for a place at the back. Ben White and Gabriel formed a formidable partnership last season, but with European football on the horizon, Arsenal will need increased squad depth.

While Saliba will certainly get minutes in the many competitions Arsenal are in, he may want to accept assurances that he will become a regular in the Premier League. If not, we might see him return to Marseille this summer.
