The RMC Sport publication denied the information that the French Marseille, having received a refusal from the Italian Atalanta on the lease of the Ukrainian midfielder Ruslan Malinovsky, abandoned his plans for this football player.
It is reported that Marseille are still targeting Malinovsky and will continue to make attempts to loan him. At the moment, the Provencals are working on options for a new proposal for Atalanta.
It is also specified that the coaching staff of Marseille sees in the person of Malinovsky a replacement for Gerson, who went to the Brazilian Flamengo.
