According to a source of SkySport, Terem Moffi is now on his way to Olympique Marseille after they matched the 30 Million Euros asking price of fellow Ligue 1 club FC Lorient.
Lorient have been holding out for a record transfer fee for the Super Eagles striker after a rash of interests from clubs in France and beyond.
OGC Nice had jumped to the head of the growing list of suitors after they upped their bid to 20 Million Euros after two previous offers of 15 and 18 Million Euros were rejected.
It is believed that Moffi, 23, will now wish to extend his stay in Ligue 1, but with a bigger club.
Lyon are also reported to be tracking the striker, who has so far netted 12 goals in Ligue 1 this term.
Lorient splashed out eight Million Euros in October 2020 to sign the all-action centre-forward from Belgian club KV Kortrijk.
His contract is up mid-2024
