Marseille close to Remy deal

Marseille are closing in on the signing of coveted Nice striker Loic Remy, who has also been linked with Spurs, Liverpool, Stoke and West Ham. The South-Coast club are believed to have agreed a fee with Nice, with reports in France suggesting it is in the region of 15million euros (around £12.4million), and the France international is excited at the prospect of linking up with the current Ligue 1 champions."I am very pleased and proud that Marseille are interested in me," Remy said in L'Equipe."After waiting so long for a transfer, everything has accelerated very quickly. I'm surprised."I need time to think but I am committed (to moving)."Marseille are also interested in another France forward, Toulouse's Andre-Pierre Gignac.
