🎥 OTD in 2022: Payet delivers a ridiculous rocket for Marseille 🚀
Dimitri Payet has an unrivaled highlight reel, compiled of sensational free-kicks and unstoppable long-range rockets. The silky French midfielder had a glittering career with Marseille, where he made over 300 career appearances and scored 78 goals in all competitions. Advertisement One of Payet's best in a Marseille shirt came during the 2021/22 Conference League quarter-final first leg against PAOK Salonika that sent the Vélodrome wild. It was a trademark Payet finish and one that delivered a memorable night for Les Phocéens. 📸 NICOLAS TUCAT

Marseille centre-back Lilian Brassier to join Rennes on loan
Marseille centre-back Lilian Brassier (25) will leave Les Phocéens to join formative club Rennes on loan, according to L'Equipe and . Brassier only joined Marseille in the summer on a loan move from Brest with an obligation to buy set at €12m. Given the Frenchman's rather poor performances under the tutelage of Roberto De Zerbi, Marseille have agreed not to trigger the option to make Brassier's move to Vélodrome permanent. Rennes winger Amine Gouiri (24) is set to go the other way and sign for Marseille. All the involved parties have agreed the situation could not carry on. Brassier opened the door to an early Marseille exit and Les Phocéens have terminated his loan. Brest will then loan the centre-back to their bitter Brittany rivals Rennes under the same conditions. Les Rouge et Noir were looking for defensive signings as Leo Ostigard and Hans Hateboer are far from convincing and have often been found wanting. Get French Football News understands that Jorge Sampaoli's departure has facilitated Brassier's arrival at Rennes. Foot Mercato adds that Brassier is set to undergo a medical this Friday evening at Rennes. It remains to be seen whether the Frenchman's arrival will stop Rennes' pursuit of Lens centre-back Kevin Danso. GFFN | Bastien Cheval

Marseille step up pursuit of Rennes' Amine Gouiri
Marseille are stepping up their pursuit of Rennes winger Amine Gouiri (24), according to and . Les Phocéens have reportedly submitted a €16m bid to lure the Algeria international. Rennes have turned down Marseille's bid for Gouiri, but Les Rouge et Noir are open to the idea of parting ways with the Olympique Lyonnais Academy graduate if their demands are met. Gouiri is Rennes' record signing after joining Les Rouge et Noir from OGC Nice in a €28m move. The 24-year-old remains tied with Rennes over a contract set to expire in 2027. Marseille need to bolster their attacking options after parting ways with Elye Wahi, who joined Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt. Foot Mercato reports that Gouiri has set his sights on joining Roberto De Zerbi's Les Phocéens. The outlet understands that club-to-club talks will continue between Rennes and Marseille. The Bretons have reportedly submitted Marseille a counteroffer. Gouiri's Rennes will host RC Strasbourg this Sunday. GFFN | Bastien Cheval
