​Southampton loanee Lemina tempted by Marseille move

Southampton loanee Mario Lemina is tempted about returning to Marseille in the summer.

The central midfielder is spending a loan term with Galatasaray as he failed to impress with the Saints.

But he does have a contract with the Premier League club until 2022, so he would need a team to offer a good fee to convince Southampton to sell.

And he hopes that team is Marseille.

"Yes, of course a possible return to Marseille interests me, even without the recovery project. Marseille remains a club in my heart," Lemina said in an interview with Europe 1.

"If there is such a beautiful project, it is even more tempting."
