Marseille have completed the signing of midfielder Boudewijn Zenden on a free transfer, and also claim to have agreed a deal "in principle" for Djibril Cisse.
The Dutchman, released by Liverpool this summer, penned a two-year deal at the Mediterranean club after completing a medical.
A statement on OM's official website read: "Midfielder Boudewijn Zenden is a Marseille player.
"The Holland international this afternoon joined OM for two years.
"The man nicknamed 'Bolo' will wear number 10."
The 30-year-old has played for PSV Eindhoven, Barcelona, Chelsea, Middlesbrough and Liverpool in a distinguished career.
His best position is on the left wing, but he can also play in the centre of midfield.
His last competitive appearance came in the Reds' 2-1 defeat to AC Milan in the final of last season's Champions League.
He has played 54 times for Holland but not since September 2004.
And on-loan France striker Cisse looks set to stay at Marseille after the club reached "an agreement in principle" with Liverpool.
The 25-year-old hitman now looks likely to sign a four-year deal with the French club.
A statement on Marseille's website read: "As well as signing Boudewijn Zenden, Marseille have also reached an agreement in principle with Liverpool for the transfer of Djibril Cisse."
Marseille qualified for this season's Champions League after finishing second in Ligue 1 last term.
