Headline: Marseille Interested in Chelsea Forward Deivid Washington
Olympique de Marseille has expressed interest in Chelsea forward Deivid Washington, according to a report from Foot Mercato.
Since his arrival at Chelsea, Washington has not managed to secure a spot in the first team. A loan move is anticipated this summer, with RC Strasbourg Alsace, who shares the same owners as Chelsea’s BlueCo, emerging as a strong candidate to sign the Brazilian player. With Emanuel Emegha’s departure and Joaquín Panichelli’s ACL injury—expected to keep him off the pitch until early next year—Strasbourg could provide Washington with vital development opportunities. Reports indicate that Le Racing has made an offer for him, alongside another from Sevilla.
In addition to Strasbourg and Sevilla’s interest, Marseille has also inquired about Washington. The player has shown initiative by discussing the club and city with fellow Brazilian and former Marseille player Luis Henrique, as reported by Foot Mercato.
Olympique de Marseille have made an enquiry about Chelsea forward Deivid Washington (21), according to a report from Foot Mercato.
Since making the move to Chelsea, Washington has failed to break into the first team. A loan move away from Stamford Bridge this summer is expected. RC Strasbourg Alsace, who share the same BlueCo owners, emerged as the clear candidate for the Brazilian’s signature. There, the striker could develop, especially in the wake of Emanuel Emegha’s exit and the ACL injury sustained by Joaquín Panichelli. The latter is not expected to return until the turn of the year. Foot Mercato understands that Le Racing have submitted an offer, as have Sevilla.

However, there is a new contender for his signature: Marseille. OM have made an enquiry about the Chelsea forward; Washington himself has also done research on the club and the city by speaking to compatriot and former Marseille player Luis Henrique, Foot Mercato understands.
