Marlon is set to depart Barcelona and Southampton are eager to bring him in having offered 12 million euros.
The Saints have managed to move ahead of West Ham, who have also expressed their interest in the Brazilian.
As reported by Sport and confirmed by MARCA, the 22-year-old defender is close to clinching a move to Mark Hughes' team.
Marlon arrived in Catalonia from Fluminense in 2016 and after spending a season with the reserves, he was loaned out to Nice, to get some playing time.
Both Ernesto Valverde and the Blaugrana board have agreed that his departure would benefit both parties and Marlon is expected to set out to England in the following weeks.
