Despite being just 25 years old, Azzedine Ounahi has already enjoyed a rollercoaster of a career so far. According to Foot Mercato, the midfielder has already said ‘yes’ to joining Brighton after speaking with the board.
The Moroccan is said to have been convinced by the project and a verbal agreement is now in place on a four-year contract. The Seagulls are set to contact Marseille ‘in the next days’ and attempt to secure a deal when the window reopens on June 16. Ounahi spent the season on loan at Greek side Panathinaikos and in the deal, there was a £9million option to buy. OM are said to be also demanding this fee from other clubs.
