Mario Balotelli's agent Mino Raiola believes a move to Marseille would be a good fit for the Italy striker.
Reports in France claim Balotelli has a verbal agreement with current club Nice that he can leave for the right offer, and that discussions are ongoing with Marseille.
Raiola told French radio station RMC: "I have good relations with OM (Olympique Marseille). I know the sports director (Andoni Zubizarreta) and the president (Jacques-Henri Eyraud) very well."
"We'll see, it's too early. He is a player who creates emotion. He always gives himself 100 per cent. He can marry very well with the Marseille mentality. The Marseillais are like that. They are hot, and Mario is hot. It is like that."
Balotelli has scored 43 goals in 66 appearances for Nice since signing from Liverpool in 2016, following a loan spell at AC Milan.
The former Manchester City striker scored four goals in his spell at Anfield.
