Valentin Carboni poses in front of Marseille's famous Notre Dame de la Garde

Olympique de Marseille have officially announced the signing of young Argentinian prospect Valentin Carboni on a loan with an option to buy. The 19-year-old attacking midfielder joins Roberto De Zerbi's side from Inter Milan, where he made 31 appearances and scored two goals in his 2023-2024 Serie A campaign.

The 2005-born attacking midfielder grew up in Argentina, representing Catane FC before his move to Inter Milan. His performances in Inter's U19 side saw a growing interest in his talents, before a loan to Monza showed Carboni's promise. His first steps with Inter's senior side last season coincided with a call-up for Lionel Scaloni's Argentina national team where Carboni would make his debut in the Copa America, and win a first international medal.
