why does it seem they're trading away all their top talent?

Basically, a shitty owner who wants to cut corners and costs.

It's not just Louis-Dreyfus.
Basically, there are financial fair play regulations in place. An easy way to imagine this is to say that OM was over the salary cap, in essence.
The incompetence of the current president is worth noting, as well. LaBrune could have sold Ayew, Gignac, Mandanda, Nkoulou - the transfer / salary savings probably would have allowed him to keep at least some talent around.
The team will be a mess until the owner sells, the team president is fired and money can be poured into the roster, basically.
*ETA - Every 'new owner' story I have read includes stories of the new ownership throwing serious money at the roster - at least $100M. That would allow the team to keep the talent they have, retaining players like Ayew, Batshuayi, Mandanda, Nkoulou, etc...
