Official – Timothy Weah, former PSG youngster, joins OM | OneFootball

Timothy Weah, a 25-year-old American striker, has officially joined Olympique de Marseille today from a transfer from Juventus Turin. A choice that can surprise for the player trained at Paris Saint-Germain from 2014 to 2018 before signing his first professional contract.

We know that this kind of choice can go very badly. But we must also give players the benefit of the doubt that they have their careers to make and that options can sometimes be lacking. However, here, Weah showed a certain determination to sign with OM. Enough to annoy PSG supporters, where the rivalry can be taken very much to heart. However, this is not the case for all players, even if we have recently seen with Serge Aurier that this can be the case.

In any case, the American striker made his choice and will return to Ligue 1. Maybe Adrien Rabiot will feel a little less alone during the next PSG/OM match at the Parc des Princes. On the Marseille side, the player's clear will to sign with Marseille has already visibly helped to forget the Parisian past.

This past also dates back a few years, it's not like a direct passage. Which is particularly rare. But it's not the first time a player has joined the second club of a great rivalry, nor the last.
