Marseille prospect Enzo Sternal set for Anderlecht transfer | OneFootball

Enzo Sternal (17) was the subject of interest from rival clubs in the summer before Roberto De Zerbi and the hierarchy at Olympique de Marseille convinced him to stay at the club. However, just a few months later, the France youth international is set to depart OM, according to a report from L’Équipe.

Sternal is seen as one of the most talented prospects at Marseille and that was reflected in the club’s determination to retain him over the summer, amid significant interest in his services, including from fierce rivals Olympique Lyonnais. However, having committed his future to the club, the France U18 international has found gametime hard to come by, making just two brief substitute appearances off the bench.

As a result, the forward is set to leave Les Phocéens. As per L’Équipe, he will join Anderlecht in the coming days. The Belgian side are willing to offer him significantly more game time than he would get at OM. Negotiations between the clubs are ongoing.
