The 20-year-old, who has made nine Bundesliga appearances for Bayern following his move from Borussia Mönchengladbach last summer, told L'Equipe:
"I saw that the club was interested, and I'm flattered. Marseille is a beautiful story. They're a legendary club who have won the Champions League. The coach has done a good job by getting them back into the Champions League. I'm happy for them. But I want to continue to focus on my project at Bayern."
"Coming here was one of the best decisions of my career. I can stay at this club for many years. I'm learning from the best players in the world. It was difficult at the start because I didn't play, but I refused to give up," he added.
Asked if he believes it was a risk to come to Bayern from Gladbach, Cuisance responded:
"Why? I still have plenty of years ahead of me here. I'm made for this level, for this kind of club. There are big players here but I know that I can succeed."
