Bayer Leverkusen has initiated discussions with Olympique de Marseille regarding the potential transfer of Argentine defender Facundo Medina. The talks come after Medina's notable performance in the recent World Cup final, where he contributed effectively for Argentina despite their loss to Spain. Marseille is reportedly aiming to at least recoup their €20 million investment made in Medina, who was signed from RC Lens. With previous strong appearances in Ligue 1 and Champions League, Medina's versatility as a defender could provide depth for Leverkusen, which, like Marseille, missed out on Champions League qualification last season.
