Florian Thauvin

The 23-year-old returned to the Stade Velodrome in the summer on a season-long loan.

And French newspaper La Provence claim that Thauvin - who has made 12 appearances for the Ligue 1 club - has already played enough games to trigger a permanent deal.

They also report that Marseille will pay a fee of around Â£10million for Thauvin next summer.
