Foot Mercato reports that Marseille expect Saudi interest in Igor Paixao before the window closes, with owner Frank McCourt setting a €50m valuation.

Get French Football News reported earlier this summer that no Marseille player is off limits at the right price, and the final say does not rest with Bruno Genesio.

The Brazilian winger, 26, could be sold as part of a broader clear-out, even though he is among those the club would prefer to keep.

Paixao was one of Marseille’s standout performers last season after his big-money move from Feyenoord.

He has impressed in pre-season, and Genesio would like to build his side around him.
