Coach Didier Deschamps says he will supervise the development of the talented midfielder in the upcoming season.
“He has taken some steps. He still remains to be overcome. He has yet to be built in his head but he has good potential,†Deschamps said.
“He will be one of six strikers that I have with all our competitions, it will not be too many."
Jordan made 22 appearances and scored twice for Marseille last season.
