Super Eagles striker attracts interest from Marseille

Sevilla striker Akor Adams is on the radar of Ligue 1 club Olympic Marseille, Completesports.com reports.

Adams has been linked with a move away from Sevilla this summer due to the club’s ongoing financial difficulties.

La Liga’s strict financial regulations require clubs to generate substantial revenue through player sales before they can register new signings, making player departures a key part of Sevilla’s plans.

Adams Impresses for Sevilla

Adams was the Rojiblancos’ leading scorer in La Liga last season, registering 10 goals and three assists in 32 appearances.

The Nigeria international played a pivotal role in Luis Garcia Plaza’s side retaining their top‑flight status, with his goals proving crucial throughout the campaign.

According to Fichajes, Marseille are prepared to offer €18 million for the forward as they aim to bolster their title credentials for the 2025/26 campaign.

Sevilla, however, are holding out for a fee closer to €25 million and are under no pressure to accept a lower offer.

Previous Stint in France

Having already played in France with Montpellier, Adams represents an attractive option for Marseille due to his familiarity with the league and proven quality.

The 26‑year‑old registered 11 goals in 47 league appearances for Montpellier.

He possesses a profile well‑suited to various tactical setups, blending speed, technical quality, aerial prowess, and an increasingly consistent end product in front of goal.
