The Argentine, 30, has been told he is no longer part of coach Didier Deschamps' plans and both parties have agreed he can leave. Spanish side Malaga have made a move for Gonzalez already this Summer, but talks are reported to have broken down.
Gonzalez signed for Marseille from Porto in 2009, for a fee of around £15 million. In May he was linked with a move to Serie A giants Roma, but the player quashed the rumours, saying: "At no time has it left my mouth that I wanted to leave or that I didn't feel good here. I have a contract with OM until 2013 and the people at the club seem happy with me."
However, Marseille President Jean-Claude Dassier announced at the end of the season that Gonzalez would be leaving the club. Marseille have debts of around 35 million Euros.
StickyToffee Verdict: A quality player but should we blow what precious little money we have on a 30-year-old?
