Olympique de Marseille has almost finalized the acquisition of Nayef Aguerd from West Ham. The transfer fee is approximately 23 million euros. Aguerd, who had a successful season at Real Sociedad and has shown interest in returning to France, is expected to sign a contract until 2030. This move is part of Marseille's strategy to strengthen their defense, especially with their participation in the Champions League this season.

Nayef Aguerd, the former Stade Rennais central defender, currently on loan at Real Sociedad from West Ham, has shown good performance this season. Marseille has renewed their interest in Aguerd after an initial approach in early June. If Marseille secures his transfer, it would be a significant acquisition considering his experience and leadership qualities.

Nayef Aguerd is also on the wish list of Olympique Marseille, and he is open to returning to France. The 29-year-old Moroccan defender is currently on loan at Real Sociedad but is expected to leave his parent club, West Ham United, in the summer. Olympique Marseille is among several clubs interested in Aguerd, who has also attracted attention from Bayer Leverkusen and Atlético Madrid. Marseille sees him as a priority signing, and Aguerd's desire to play in the Champions League next season aligns with the club's ambitions. West Ham might let him go for a fee between 15 and 20 million euros.
