Olympique Marseille had a strong interest in Matthieu Epolo, but according to Get Football News France, that interest has diminished. Get French Football News also reports that Marseille remains interested in Matthieu Epolo.

Olympique Marseille is targeting 21-year-old DR Congo international Matthieu Epolo, as the club is urgently looking for a new goalkeeper after Geronimo Rulli's departure to Manchester City. Marseille's current goalkeeper, Jeffrey de Lange, might also depart, which would leave them with less experienced options. Standard reportedly wants 8 million euro for Epolo, but Marseille is unwilling to meet that price and must sell players before spending more. Standard's position is strengthened by interest from another Ligue 1 club and a Premier League team that views Epolo as a second-choice goalkeeper. Epolo's contract with Standard Liège is valid until June 2029.
