MARSEILLE are reportedly looking to offload former Arsenal left-back Sead Kolasinac just months after joining the Ligue 1 outfit.
The Gunners ripped up the 28-year-old’s contract in January to allow him to join the French club after being deemed as surplus to requirements by Mikel Arteta.
He penned a contract at Stade Velodrome until the summer of 2023, but he could now already be on the move.
Kolasinac appeared in 17 games in all competitions for Marseille, but he didn’t complete the 90 minutes in any match.
And according to Foot Mercato, boss Jorge Sampaoli has been left unimpressed by his outings.
They state that the Bosnia and Herzegovina international has been told by Sampaoli that he will not see an improvement on his playing time next term.

The news outlet adds that Marseille will do everything in order to part ways with the ex-Schalke skipper.
Marseille are said to have already identified Kolasinac’s potential replacement, with Real Madrid legend Marcelo eyed up.
The 34-year-old will be available on a free transfer as he approaches the end of his contract at the Bernabeu.
In a blow for Marseille, William Saliba has vowed to return to the Emirates and fight for a spot following his loan spell.

Saliba revealed last month how he hopes to stay at Marseille after helping the club secure a Champions League spot.
But he has now announced his desire to be part of the Gunners‘ squad.
He told Telefoot: “I belong to Arsenal, I still have two years left.
“I will be back with Arsenal. I have played zero matches and I still want to show them my true face and have the chance to play for these fans and this great club.
“But it doesn’t just depend on me. In any case, to leave like this, would be a shame.”
