Although both players are on loan from Arsenal, William Saliba and Matteo Guendouzi are unlikely to return to the Gunners together, with a definitive transfer from Guendouzi to OM in the pipeline. Still, Newcastle should not derail OM's plans…

Among them, William Saliba and Matteo Guendouzi landed from Arsenal on the form of different loans. Indeed, as regards the international 20-year-old hope who plays in central defense, no call option has been included in the deal agreed between OM and Arsenal . And although it would bring satisfaction to the technical staff of Jorge Sampaoli in Marseille, we should not expect a transfer or even a simple new loan according to The Daily Telegraph . British media reported earlier this week that Saliba 's primary willwas to come back to the Gunners at the end of the season to win.
Saliba back to Arsenal, and Guendouzi?
As for Matteo Guendouzi , the situation would be different. Apart from the fact that an option to buy is included in the commitment made between Arsenal and OM, the midfielder would no longer enter the plans of the Gunners and could thus definitely become a Olympique de Marseille player at the end of the season. Unless Newcastle, which has just passed under the Saudi flag, derails the plans of the OM ? According to Foot Mercato, the Magpies are considering launching an offensive for Guendouzi at the end of the season. However, the French would feel good within the Marseille club. If all goes as planned, OM could retain one of the two players on loan from Arsenal . The stage is set.
