Marseille close in on move for Feyenoord midfielder Quinten Timber

Olympique de Marseille are close to completing the signing of Quinten Timber from Feyenoord, with talks between the two clubs now at an advanced stage.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Marseille have already reached a verbal agreement with the 23-year-old midfielder. Negotiations with Feyenoord are ongoing over a transfer fee, which is expected to be relatively low given that Timber is entering the final year of his contract.

The Dutch midfielder has seen his situation deteriorate in recent weeks, having reportedly fallen out with head coach Robin van Persie. As a result, Timber was stripped of the captain’s armband, accelerating his likely departure from the Eredivisie side.
