Marseille will be able to make their loan move for Aston Villa defender Jordan Amavi permanent for a modest £8.9m.
According to L'Equipe, Marseille have already agreed the fee with Villa as part of the initial loan for the full back.
Amavi drew a line under his time at Villa in the summer after a total of just 44 league appearances over an injury hit two years.
But he has made a flying start to life back in his homeland and his impressive form has resulted in a call up to the star-studded France squad.
