O'Riley completes Marseille loan

- Published
Brighton midfielder Matt O'Riley has completed a season-long loan to Ligue 1 side Marseille.
The 24-year-old joined the Seagulls from Celtic in August 2024 and has made 25 appearances for the club, scoring three goals.
Head coach Fabian Hurzeler said: "Matt has the opportunity to challenge himself at the highest level in France and in the Champions League.
"We have a lot of competition in the midfield positions, and while we see Matt's long-term future here with us, this gives him the potential of more game time."
The Denmark international will work under former Albion boss Roberto de Zerbi, who led Marseille to a second-place finish in Ligue 1 last season.
