The BVB has apparently found a buyer for Leonardo Balerdi, a fine reservist. According to a report from France, the Argentine will be running for Olympique Marseille next season. According to the newspaper “L ‘Équipe”, the young Argentinian is the favourite candidate for the new season among the South Frenchmen. Marseille coach André Villas-Boas even confirmed the interest in the paper: “Jacques-Henri (OM President, ed.) were named four names, and he is one of them. He’s got an interesting profile, we’ll see what happens.”
The 21-year-old is to sign a loan agreement with the French club, including a purchase option. “Bild” now wants to know that the fixed replacement sum is supposed to be twelve million euros. The youngster came from River Plate to the Ruhr area a year and a half ago for 15.5 million euros.
