Moving from West Brom to Norwich on a free last summer, Youssouf Mulumbu quickly fell out of favour at Carrow Road under Alex Neil.
With a year left on his contract, the Congolese midfielder looks likely to leave the Championship club before the end of the transfer window, and a move to France was being touted earlier on in the summer.
Marseille were desperate for signings having let go or sold half of their team, and a move for the former Paris Saint-Germain and Amiens midfielder could have been a solution to an important midfield problem.
However, with Lassana Diarra looking more and more likely to stay, or at least dragging his transfer out for as long as possible, L’Equipe are reporting the twice capped France U21 international has flown to Turkey hold discussions with Kayserispor after getting tired of waiting.
If the negotiations prove to be positive, then the 29-year-old should complete his move to the Turkish league before Wednesday when, well, the transfer window closes.
Marseille still have time, but, with Norwich clearly looking to sell and Kayserispor ready to pounce, they don’t have tons of it.
