Mason Greenwood transfer news: AS Rome eyes bargain deal

The race to sign Mason Greenwood is heating up as the Olympique de Marseille (OM) faces increasing financial pressure to offload the English striker. With the club under scrutiny from French football’s financial regulator, the DNCG, sources close to the board confirm that Greenwood’s price tag has been set at a minimum of €50 million—a figure that some observers believe could be negotiable.

AS Rome confident of securing Greenwood at reduced cost

The Italian club is reportedly preparing an offer of €40 million (plus bonuses), a figure that has raised eyebrows in Ligue 1 circles. Insiders suggest that Marseille’s urgency to sell could work in Rome’s favor, especially as financial constraints loom over the club’s summer plans.

Will OM lower Greenwood’s asking price?

While Greenwood’s valuation remains fixed at €50 million for now, pundits argue that the striker’s potential return in Ligue 1 could justify a higher fee. Some analysts believe the club may hold out for a better deal, pointing to recent transfer trends where top strikers have fetched €60 million or more. Others warn that delaying a sale could backfire if the DNCG tightens its financial oversight in the coming weeks.

Competing clubs keep a close watch

Greenwood’s future isn’t just a matter for Marseille and Rome. Atlético Madrid and Fenerbahçe have also expressed interest, though their bids may not match the Italian club’s optimism. With the transfer window still open, the coming days will be decisive in determining whether Greenwood lands in Ligue 1—or heads elsewhere in Europe.
