According to Italian journalist Scilla, the Ligue 1 club
Marseille, city in south France
Against Inter Milan's 19-year-old midfielder
Carbonnie
An offer of a loan plus an option to buy out was made for a total of €35 to €36 million.
Skylar notes that Marseille want to bring in Carboni this summer and have already submitted that offer. However, Inter want to include a €40 million buy-back clause in the deal to maintain control over the player's future.
Carboni's contract with Inter Milan runs until 2028. Last season, he was loaned to Monza and appeared in 32 games, contributing two goals and four assists for a total of 1,178 minutes.
The potential deal shows Marseille's high level of interest in Carboni and Inter's desire to maintain control over the player's future development while doing so. The progress of the negotiations between the two sides will be widely watched and fans are looking forward to seeing how the young midfielder performs in the coming season.
