Benatia ready to move permanently to Marseille?
Still according to L'Équipe, Mehdi Benatia, who still lives in Dubai, could definitively settle in Marseille following this promotion. “The question of the future location of Mehdi Benatia, whose family lives in Dubai, will be a subject to be clarified legally. After a year of back and forth, a full-time move to Provence appears plausible,” explains the sports daily. Especially since Mehdi Benatia should sign a new two and a half year contract for the Marseille club.
