Marseille, one of the brightest stars in European soccer, has added another strong addition to its roster - Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Hejazi through a rent-and-buy strategy, following the arrival of Manchester United winger Grigio Grimmett. At the same time, the Brighton club seems to be actively pushing for a shift to the Premier League style, with new coach DeSabi's influence becoming increasingly evident.
It is reported that Marseille will rent Hejchaji for a full season before buying him out for a whopping €20 million (HK$170 million) next summer. Hejchaji has been a stalwart of the team since moving to Spurs from Southampton four years ago. Why has the midfield superstar been featured in the London side, who have collected just 10 goals in 184 games, as well as the Danish national team at this year's Euros?
It's worth noting that Hejchaji's stoppage time goal in the dying moments of the UEFA Europa League group stage in November 2022 helped Tottenham Hotspur narrowly beat Marseille 2-1 to win the top spot in the group. Now, it seems that the Danish international will dedicate his talents to Marseille. It seems that this will be a new chapter for him with his hometown team.
