According to Foot Mercato, the Olympian management would now be determined to keep Emerson Palmieri. Despite the need to sell, the Phocaean club would have decided to retain him. A generous offer for Emerson Palmieri could change the situation by the end of the transfer window on Tuesday evening.

Italian international left-back Emerson Palmieri, 31, currently at Marseille, is also liked by Juventus as a possible alternative to Andrea Cambiaso. In the 2025/2026 Ligue 1 season, he made 28 appearances and provided 3 assists for the club he joined in September 2025. The defender, who has 29 caps for Italy, has a contract with the French club until June 2027. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €9.00m. Marseille acquired him from West Ham in September 2025 for a reported fee of €700,000. West Ham had paid Chelsea €15.4 million for his services in August 2022.
