Olympique de Marseille are pushing to sign Standard Liege goalkeeper Matthieu Epolo (21), Get French Football News understands. The Ligue 1 club remain, however, in a position of having to sell before they buy. They aren't the only party interested in the DR Congo international. Another Ligue 1 club and a Premier League side in the market for a No.2 goalkeeper have also made enquiries.
OM's transfer window continues to be held up by an inability to get some of the top earners off their books. Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg is one of the players that Marseille are keen to offload, although there is no player for whom bids will not be welcomed.
Sales would, notably, allow them to sign a goalkeeper (or two), which has become a priority for Grégory Lorenzi. Jeffrey De Lange started against RC Strasbourg Alsace on Friday night; the Dutchman could yet leave. Currently, there is a difference in valuation between the Ligue 1 club and Standard Liege, who are demanding an €8m fee.
Les Phocéens could face competition in the form of another Ligue 1 club and a Premier League side who have already reached out to the Belgian outfit.
