Marseille ‘have offered’ Leonardo Balerdi to Fulham as Abdelhamid Ait-Boudlal talks continue | OneFootball

Foot Mercato reports that Marseille have offered Leonardo Balerdi to Fulham, while the Premier League club remain in talks to sign Abdelhamid Ait-Boudlal and have also submitted an offer for Real Betis’ Natan.

Marseille are accelerating player exits as the window nears its end. Unique Sports have been mandated to place squad members, and the Balerdi approach is aimed at prompting a bid. Rennes are currently reluctant to strike a deal for Ait-Boudlal.

Balerdi is considered one of OM’s most bankable assets and one they are desperate to sell to meet commitments made to the DNCG and UEFA on player sales.

The Argentina international endured a difficult campaign last season and was stripped of the captain’s armband.

At a pre-season friendly at the Vélodrome last week, he was booed by sections of the home crowd after mistakes that gifted Atletico Madrid victory.
