The move is a return to the French city for the winger, who left the club last summer for £12million.
Thauvin has failed to make an impact at St James' Park, starting just three games in the Premier League under Steve McClaren and scoring one goal.
The 23-year-old landed in Marseille this morning after agreeing to take a pay cut for the remainder of the 2015/16 campaign.
The deal does not include the option of making the move permanent.
