Defender Dória has started French lessons to help him acclimatise to life with Marseille.

The 19 year-old joined the Ligue 1 outfit from Botafogo for €5 million earlier this month and is seemingly beginning to settle in France.

The Brazil under-20 international posted a video of one of his French lessons on his official Facebook page to show his commitment to settling quickly at L’OM.

Dória’s arrival at Marseille initially caused some controversy, with Head Coach Marcelo Bielsa admitting he was opposed to signing the centre-back and instead wanted Atlético Madrid’s Toby Alderweireld, who is now at Southampton on loan.
