Ligue 1 side Marseille have announced the signing of Croatian central defender Duje Ćaleta-Car from Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg on a 5-year contract.

The deal to take the 21 year-old to the Stade Vélodrome is understood to amount to €17m including bonuses.

Ćaleta-Car had spent four seasons with the Austrian outfit, making 84 appearances and mustering 4 goals in this period.

Marseille are understood to have beaten fellow European side’s Lyon & Sevilla to the Croatian’s signature, who caught the eye of the Marseille manager Rudi Garcia during last season’s Europa League Semi-Final.
