Bayern Munich Midfielder Michael Cuisance has joined Marseille on a season-long loan until the end of the season, English Premier League side Leeds United first made a move for the player three days ago but the deal failed to move through.
The 21-year-old, who has represented France up to under-20 level, was close to joining Marcelo Bielsa’s side for a fee believed to be around £20m. But the deal failed to scale through with reports suggesting the player had failed a medical.
His loan move includes an option for the Ligue 1 side to make the deal a permanent one. Michael Cuisance made 10 appearances for European champions Bayern Munich during the 2019-20 season, scoring one goal.
