MARSEILLE (FRANCE) (ITALPRESS) – “I’m very proud to join Marseille, such a prestigious club. I can’t wait for Friday to be at the Vélodrome and feel the passion of the fans.” Benjamin Pavard is ready for his new adventure. The French defender has arrived from Inter on loan with a €15 million buy option and dreams of “experiencing great emotions here. I’ve already played at the Vélodrome with Lille and the atmosphere was incredible.”

For him, this was the only choice: In my head there was only OM, I only wanted Olympique. I had a good conversation with Mehdi (Benatia, ed.). He’s been doing a great job for two years. There’s a quality group here. I hope we can achieve great things together.”
