Barcelona: Valverde calls time on French international's career at the Camp Nou

Barcelona: Valverde calls time on French international's career at the Camp Nou

Ernesto Valverde’s Barcelona revolution continues with reports from Spain stating that French defender Jeremy Mathieu is heading for the exit at the Camp Nou. The 33-year-old, who joined the Catalan giants back in 2014, is the subject of interest from both Marseille and Sporting Lisbon and a move to one of them looks imminent.
 
Marseille boss Rudi Garcia is a huge admirer of the player and was close to bringing him to Roma when he took over in the Italian capital but ultimately lost out to the Blaugrana. Now it could be second time lucky for the French tactician as he continues to make improvements to the port club.
 
With the side from the Portuguese capital also believed to be in the frame, it may now come down to a straight choice for the player himself who has never really established himself in the starting XI at Barca.
