While he should engage with Lorient, Bamba Dieng will finally return to Marseille. A knee problem, like last summer, would have been detected during his medical visit and the Senegalese international should, for the moment, stay at OM. The Marseille leaders would be afraid that the Merlus would try to use this to lower the transfer fee.
Decidedly, the stars align so that Bamba Dieng stay atOM. Already on the start last summer, the transfer of the Senegalese international toOGC Nice had aborted at the last moment due to a knee problem detected during her medical visit. A scenario that seems to repeat itself during this winter transfer window.

Dieng returns to Marseille
Bamba Dieng had to engage with Lorientwhile at the same time theOM hoped to succeed in securing the services of Terem Moffi. The latter would finally give his preference to theOGC Nicealso on the spot, but the Senegalese striker meanwhile had to engage with the hake. But as indicated Saber Desfargesa problem was detected during his medical visit and Bamba Dieng should return to Marseilles.
A maneuver from Lorient?
RMC for its part brings a little more information in this file full of twists and turns. L’OM would continue to receive offers from Lorient in regards to Bamba Dieng. The Marseille leaders would be afraid that the hake try to use his knee problem, which has never prevented him from playing so far, in order to lower the price of his transfer. As a reminder, theOM asks for 10M€ to part with Bamba Diengwho is under contract until June 2024.
