Midfielder Joey Barton met with the Marseille coach and president on Wednesday to discuss a potential transfer.
The French club posted a video on its website on Wednesday showing Barton arriving at the club's training ground along with his agent and meeting with coach Elie Baup and President Vincent Labrune.
Barton has said on his Twitter page that he wants to leave Queens Park Rangers to join Marseille.
QPR stripped Barton of the captaincy for his violent conduct against Manchester City players in the final round of the Premier League last season.
