OGC Nice sign Marlon from Barcelona on a 2-year loan deal


He has a 20 Million transfer fee option after 2 years


⚽ **TRANSFERS: Ligue-1 2017/18** ⚽


Player: Marlon
Age: 21 years
Position: Centre Back

To: OGC Nice
From: FC Barcelona

Signed on a 2-year loan
Permanent €20 Million option in 2019

Brazilian defender Marlon has signed on a 2-year loan deal with French club Nice with an option to sign him on a permanent deal worth 20 Million. The defender recently completed his permanent deal with Barcelona this summer for 5 Million after an impressive loan spell.


He helped the Barcelona B team earn promotion to La Liga's second tier after making 27 appearances which led to him making his first team debut.

Barcelona may have made a mistake by letting Marlon go out on loan. His departure leaves the club with only 4 first team centre backs and they may have to sign someone before the window closes.


Marlon's arrival may establish a new central defensive partnership with fellow Brazilian player and Nice captain Dante.

Marlon has what it takes to become a top defender in the future and could become an established member of the team this season. All the best to him.
