The French club is demanding a sum of 50 million euros for the Brazilian player, who has been scoring in every training match so far. Paixão has a good relationship with the new trainer Bruno Genesio and is unlikely to leave the club. Marseille made 30 million euros from Feyenoord for the player last summer, and they want to make a significant profit from a potential transfer.

The 26-year-old forward is under contract with Olympique Marseille until mid-2030, and he has been linked to several clubs this summer, including AS Roma and Palmeiras. Marseille is expecting another approach from Saudi Arabia before the transfer market closes.
