So, there could be mitigating circumstances for Azzedine Ounahi’s average performances in the colors of Marseille. The Moroccan international has been nursing an injury for several months.
Joining Olympique de Marseille during the winter transfer window of 2023 after an excellent 2022 World Cup, Ounahi struggles to rediscover his true form. He’s been inconsistent and has never maintained a steady level of performance. Even this season, the Moroccan midfielder has mostly underperformed.
This Saturday, L’Equipe provided reasons for the Atlas Lion’s inconsistent displays. According to the French newspaper, Azzedine Ounahi has been experiencing foot pains since the start of the season and has been receiving injections every 3 months. He plans to consult a specialist at the end of the season.
Despite his mediocre performances with the Marseille club, the former SCO Angers player could leave at the end of the season. Nevertheless, he’s not lacking suitors. This season, the Moroccan international has played 30 matches across all competitions (1,770 minutes) with 2 goals and 1 assist.
Under contract with OM until June 2027, the 23-year-old midfielder is valued at €12 million by Transfermarkt. Azzedine Ounahi earns a salary of €4,150,000 per year, equivalent to 2,697,500,000 FCFA.
