Recently, Nice midfielder Jean-Claire Todibo spoke up about his future, affirming that he will wait for developments in the 2024 summer transfer window before making a decision.
Jean-Clair Todibo recently left open the possibility of leaving Nice in the 2024 summer transfer window. Currently, there are many rumors saying Manchester United is interested in the Nice defender. The French international can leave Nice for about 35 million Euros, according to information from The Sun.
In addition to the red half of Manchester, both Chelsea and Tottenham are said to be very interested in recruiting him. Todibo’s current contract will expire in 2027 but he could be sold in this summer’s transfer window for around 35 million Euros. Todibo’s parent club, Nice, is also in the process of finding a replacement for this midfielder.
Todibo has admitted that he feels “comfortable” for a transfer, but he is not ready to make a final decision until the summer transfer window arrives. Todibo said: “I am currently at Nice and we are having a great season. I have no other intention. If I did it now, it would be a very difficult decision for me personally and the entire club.”
“I feel very comfortable in Nice. But we will see what happens in the summer but we are not there yet. I don’t want to go too far in this story. I don’t want to create hope . Currently, I’m here in Nice.”
The ex-Barcelona star added: “Football moves quickly, you never know what will happen. I will wait until the summer to make my decision. If my decision is to stay, I will announce, if I leave, I will also announce and I will thank everyone, but we are not at that time yet.'”
If the Todibo deal happens, Man United will be the team that will have the most advantages in the race to win the French star’s signature. Simply because Sir Jim Ratcliffe is the co-owner of the two clubs Nice and Man United. He and the INEOS group can easily create conditions for Todibo to move to Old Trafford. Even according to many sources, Nice is willing to lower Todibo’s price a bit if Man United accepts to sit at the negotiating table with the French club.
