Leonardo Balerdi, a 27-year-old Argentine defender, is set to part ways with Olympique de Marseille at the end of the current season. AS Roma is actively tracking his situation as they aim to enhance their defensive lineup. Balerdi, who previously played for Borussia Dortmund, has made 21 competitive appearances in Ligue 1 this season, although his performance has been impacted by muscle issues. Despite facing criticism regarding his fitness, Balerdi remains a sought-after player, with interest from various international clubs. Marseille has placed a valuation of approximately €20 million (around $21.6 million USD) on him, although this figure may change following the upcoming World Cup. His contract with Marseille runs until 2028, adding an interesting dynamic to any potential transfer negotiations.
