Barcelona have received €20m offer for Marlon Santos, says Nice president

Barcelona have received a €20 million offer for defender Marlon Santos who is halfway through a two-season loan at Ligue 1 side Nice.

According to the club’s president Jean-Pierre Rivère, the 22-year-old is set to leave the French side although he didn’t say where he was going.

“Barcelona have received a €20m offer for Marlon. He is therefore set to leave OGC Nice,” he said.

It’s a pretty surprising claim but if it turns out to be true you’d suspect Barcelona would find it hard to turn the offer down.
