Marseille compete with Liverpool, Roma for Serie A star
L’Equipe (via Le10Sport) claim that Rudi Garcia is very interested in the 25-year-old, and has been a fan since he was still Coaching AS Roma. Perhaps it isn’t a coincidence that the Giallorossi are interested in him, too!
Marseille need someone to be a foil for star man Bafetimbi Gomis, the former Swansea man one of the workhorses of the aspiring Ligue 1 club.
L’Equipe claim that €18 million would be enough to nab Defrel.
The Independent reported a while back that Defrel was a target for Liverpool.
Sassuolo have major doubts about letting Defrel go, his six goals and one assist a far better score than the ailing Alessandro Matri.
The Frenchman has been appreciated in Italy for a while now, scoring 7 Serie A goals last season for Sassuolo and 9 in the previous campaign, though his team at the time, Cesena, was relegated despite his prowess.
