May 20th Not long ago, Marseille director Benatia was interviewed to confirm that the club intends to sign a new defender.

Marseille's plan to introduce central defenders is becoming increasingly clear. To strengthen the defense, the Marseille club is currently pursuing an Argentine defender.

Marseille director Benatia said not long ago: "We have played 55 games, so it needs more depth. Luis Felipe is injured. We want to strengthen the defense line, and we also want to strengthen the wings and find players who can create threats and change the situation of the game. This is very important in the coach's tactical philosophy. We want to sign smartly and find players who can bring real value."

Benatia confirmed that Marseille is looking for a central defender, and several players currently have names on Marseille's list of signings, including Laporte and Medina.

According to reporter Garcia Grova, Marseille has indeed started negotiations with Lens to try to sign 25-year-old Argentine international Medina. According to a TyCSports reporter, Lens may demand a transfer fee of 25 million euros.
