Moreno on Marseille’s radar

According to L’Equipe, Liverpool’s Alberto Moreno has come up on the radar of Olympique Marseille.

The Spaniard’s contract with the Merseyside club is set to expire next summer, and he’s unlikely to sign a new one as his place in the team is being held firmly by Andy Robertson.

Moreno arrived at Anfield in the summer of 2014 from Sevilla, and since then he has lost his spot to three different players, centre-back Joe Gomez at the start of 2015/16, midfielder James Milner in 2016/17, and now Robertson. He may have regained it from the first two due to various circumstances, but he doesn’t look likely to displace the Scotland international any time soon.

The situation has alerted a number of clubs to his availability, and he has been linked with moves to Barcelona, Arsenal and a return to Sevilla. Now, however, Marseille seem to have joined the race. He well be free to talk to clubs outside England from January 1.
