Telefoot: Marseille make contact with Arsenal over possible Guendouzi loan (reliability: 4 stars)
  • Marseille have popped up on the radar to register their interest in out-of-favour Matteo Guendouzi, according to Telefoot.
  • The French side made enquiries about a possible loan for the Frenchman while Arsenal want to ship the midfield off on a permanent basis.
  • Guendouzi appears to have burnt bridges with Mikel Arteta in June, following a bust-up with Neal Maupay: Matteo failed to make the squad since.
  • The story carried over into the new season, despite the Frenchman bein allowed back into first-team training.
  • Guendouzi was also approached by Villarreal, Valencia, Hertha Berlin, Real Betis and Sevilla; he also was offered to Lyon and Atletico in part-exchange deals.
  • We don't know the details of a possible deal with Marseille of course but it looks like a loan isn't the worst thing in the world: we'll still be able to sell Matteo next summer once the financial situation across the board improves.
