France midfielder Adrien Rabiot has agreed a deal in principle to join Ligue 1 club Marseille.
Rabiot, who has been a free agent since leaving Juventus in July, will move back to France subject to passing a medical.
The 29-year-old, who has 48 caps for France, spent five years in Turin after leaving Paris St-Germain in 2019.
Rabiot, who has reportedly been a transfer target for Premier League clubs, including Manchester United, had a brief spell at Manchester City's academy before he joined PSG where he made his senior debut.
He won a Serie A title, two Italian Cups and one Italian Super Cup at Juventus.
Rabiot played five times at the Euro 2024 in Germany - where France were knocked out by eventual winners Spain in the semi-finals.
Marseille are second in Ligue 1 under new manager Roberto de Zerbi and Rabiot will join summer signings including Mason Greenwood, Neal Maupay and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg.
"Olympique de Marseille announces that it has reached an agreement in principle with Adrien Rabiot for the arrival of the French international midfielder at the club," the club said in a statement.
"The player will sign with OM subject to the results of the medical examination."
