Emerson Palmieri Joins Marseille from West Ham

As the summer transfer window edges towards its conclusion, West Ham United have confirmed the permanent departure of Emerson Palmieri to French club Marseille. The Italian left-back, who arrived at West Ham in 2022, made 113 appearances for the Hammers and became a key figure in their defensive setup. Emerson played a vital role in the club’s 2023 UEFA Conference League triumph, the first European trophy West Ham had won in decades, cementing his place in their recent history.

His move to Marseille marks the end of a significant chapter at the London Stadium, as David Moyes continues reshaping his squad for the new campaign. The deal underlines Marseille’s intent to strengthen its defense with an experienced international player who has Premier League and European pedigree. Elsewhere on transfer deadline day, Liverpool agreed deals for striker Alexander Isak and defender Marc Guehi, with the latter set for a £35 million move from Crystal Palace.
