Marseille like Juan Jesus

By Football Italia staff

Olympique Marseille are interested in Roma defender Juan Jesus, but the price-tag is €12m, according to L’Equipe.

The reports from France suggest OM are planning an offer for the Brazilian centre-back.

Juan Jesus is considered a second-string player behind Kostas Manolas and Federico Fazio, although he can at times play at left-back when needed.

He turns 27 tomorrow and is under contract with the Giallorossi until June 2020.

Also linked with Besiktas and Torino, the former Inter man had 29 competitive appearances for Roma this season.
