Weah A Target For French & English Clubs

Juventus outcast Timothy Weah is wanted by Olympique Marseille, but reports in France also point to AS Monaco, Everton and Leeds United.

The Bianconeri had hoped to sell him and Samuel Mbangula to Nottingham Forest, but both players turned down the move and negotiations were abandoned.

It is believed they had valued Weah at €15m, so anyone who is willing to meet that figure and can agree personal terms with the USMNT midfielder should get the all-clear.

Clubs lining up for Weah opportunity
There had already been reports that Olympique Marseille were preparing a few different formulas to make the deal work.

Now Footmercato in France suggest several more clubs are ready to step up in the chase for Weah this summer.

They include Ligue 1 side AS Monaco, who just signed Paul Pogba as a free agent after he terminated his contract with Juventus by mutual consent.

The others are in the Premier League, with Everton and newly-promoted Leeds United, but considering he turned down Nottingham Forest, it might be difficult to convince him.

Tottenham Hotspur had also been linked, but seem to have taken a step back from pursuing this transfer.
