During the loan season with the Italian side, Mario made only ten appearances and netted twice times. Considering such performance, he would not possibly continue with the first team in Juventus and so, Allegri is willing to sell him where he can get better option to continue.

Later French Marseille recruited him for €4 million in 2013. With them, he played 46 appearances and netted only twice in two consecutive seasons. Due to his continue poor performance, he was given loan to Juventus and after one year passing loan period, he has got chance to be permanent with them though there is still confusion that he would probably not chance to perform with their first team.
