Marseille have loaned out Slovenian international defender Bostjan Cesar, seen here in June 2007, to English Championship side West Bromwich Albion with the option to buy.
MARSEILLE, France (AFP) - Marseille have loaned out Slovenian international defender Bostjan Cesar to English Championship side West Bromwich Albion with the option to buy, revealed Marseille club president Pape Diouf on Monday.
The option to buy is "in the order of one million euros," Diouf told AFP.
"We have reached agreement with West Bromwich Albion over the loan wuth the option of buying him.
"However the player is still discussing personal terms with the club."
The 25-year-old, who was under contract with the French giants until 2009, joined Marseille in August 2005 from Croatian side Dinamo Zagreb.
However since fracturing his temple in February 2006 the defender lost his place in the starting lineup and only played in seven matches last season.
West Brom were close to joining England's top flight last season after competing in the promotion playoff final at Wembley in May but lost 1-0 to Derby County.
