Rekik set for Marseille switch

Manchester City defender Karim Rekik will join Marseille next season, providing he passes a medical at the Ligue 1 club.

Marseille announced it has reached an agreement with Manchester City for the transfer of Karim Rekik, subject to the defender passing a medical.

Rekik has struggled to break into the first team at the Etihad Stadium, and has spent time on loan at Portsmouth and Blackburn Rovers.

His latest move away from City came in the past two campaigns when he was loaned to PSV, helping the club win the Eredivisie title last season.
