The 17 year old midfielder currently plays for Bochum’s under-19 team and has made one appearance for them this season.
Marotta signed for Bochum from another German club SGV Freiburg and holds an Italian passport along with a German one.
The Lancers have serious competition on their hands in trying to lure the midfielder to the Eredivisie as Serie A sides Atalanta and Udinese remain interested as well. Any team vying to lure the player though will have to come up with the asking price as the right sided player is contracted until 2017 at Ruhrstadion.
