It looks like Remy Cabella could be set to leave Newcastle United.
The playmaker has endured a difficult first 12 months on Tyneside and he could be offered the chance to return to France on loan next season by Marseille.
La Provence is reporting that, should West Ham United sign Dimitri Payet for £14 million this summer, Marseille will look to plug the gap in their midfield by taking Cabella on a season-long loan.
Any such deal could also allow forward Florian Thauvin, long-tracked by Newcastle, to make the move to St James’ Park from Ligue 1.
It would be a shame to see the French international leave as he showed glimpses of the quality that warranted the £12 million fee The Magpies paid for him last summer.
It's fair to say that he didn't make too much of an impression on the field last season, but he certainly made a lasting one off it.
Cabella is one of the more approachable players in the United squad at the moment which is made clear when you see the mountain of photos on social media of him posing with members of the Toon Army. He has become somewhat of a cult hero in the eyes of Magpies fans for a couple of reasons, mainly his hair, which never goes flat and his fashion sense.
Speaking on said fashion sense, here's 22 times Remy's famed Instagram account left us all screaming WTF!
