Marseille set to complete Amalfitano signing

Marseille have agreed to sign midfielder Morgan Amalfitano from Lorient, L’Equipe has reported.

The 26-year-old midfielder has agreed to join Marseille when his contract with Lorient expires at the end of the season.

After the impressive season in Ligue 1, Amalfitano was tracked by Lille, Aston Villa and Sevilla, but Marseille were always the favorites to sign the highly regarded midfielder.

Just few days ago the player welcomed Marseille interest but said that he would need some time to make a decision on his future.

However, it has now been revealed that Amalfitano has agreed a four-year contract at Velodrome with the transfer set to become official after he passes a medical later today.

Amalfitano will thus become Didier Deschamps’ first signing of the transfer window, just few days after the coach rejected transfer talk by saying that he intended to remain at Marseille.
