Ligue 1 side LOSC Lille Métropole have completed the signing of Croatian midfielder Marko Marić from Greek side Egaleo FC.
Bodmer replacement
The 23-year-old has joined the northern club on a three-year contract but no details of a transfer fee have been released. Marić, a former Croatia Under-21 captain, is mooted to be a replacement for Mathieu Bodmer, who joined Olympique Lyonnais last month, as he is also a versatile player. Marić started his career at NK Zagreb before joining Egaleo in 2005. Lille missed out on Europe this season after finishing tenth in the French top division.
