Marseille is almost done signing Feyenoord winger Igor Paixão. This week, the two teams' negotiations have advanced, and a complete deal is now attainable. The estimated sum for the Brazilian winger to join OM is €35 million, including bonuses, which is more than the €32 million Braga spent for Vitinha in January 2023. The 25-year-old Paixão has already agreed to personal terms on a deal that will last until 2030.
Since joining Feyenoord in 2022, the former Coritiba player has excelled in the Eredivisie and played a significant role in their 2022–2023 championship run. For OM manager Roberto De Zerbi, who has worked hard to acquire offensive reinforcements this summer, the transfer is a huge coup. Marseille is also anticipated to finalize Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's return on a free transfer.
