French clubs engaged in summer transfer talks with Stade Rennais and Olympique de Marseille

Midfielder Marc Casado, 22, said he spoke with Barcelona coach Hansi Flick to clarify his future, while Stade Rennais continues to monitor the situation. No concrete negotiations have been announced and Barcelona will wait for the preseason to decide.

Italian club AS Roma is reportedly planning a double deal targeting Olympique de Marseille, involving English winger Mason Greenwood and Dutch midfielder Quinten Timber. Discussions are ongoing, with no agreement reached and competing interests from other clubs such as Fenerbahçe. Marseille hopes the deals could help balance its finances, but nothing is finalized yet.
