Marseille was one of the clubs targeting Lautaro Rivero, a 22-year-old Argentinian central defender from River Plate. Udinese was also interested in the player. Atletico Madrid is described as the most convinced and is reportedly prepared to offer €10 million for his transfer. The defender, who has one cap for Argentina, is under contract until the end of 2029 and made 18 domestic league appearances in the 2025/2026 season, scoring once. His current Transfermarkt market value is €7.00m, and his contract reportedly contains a release clause between €87 million and €100 million. The €10 million offer matches a reported June 2026 asking price of €10 million. Previous reports mentioned a potential €15-20 million offer from Roma in May 2026 and a €30 million asking price in February 2026.
