Premier League Giant Clubs In Battle for OGC Nice’s Defensive Jewel, Todibo
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

According to a report, Jean-Clair Todibo has attracted the attention of West Ham United. The 24-year-old defender from OGC Nice has also been on the radar of Manchester United leading up to the upcoming summer transfer window. The Hammers are in the process of formulating a more enticing proposal to acquire the services of the centre-back, following the rejection of their initial offer amounting to £25.4 million.
The journey of Jean-Clair Todibo with OGC Nice, he has emerged as one of the premier defenders in Ligue 1 since his move to OGC Nice from Barcelona. The French player encountered a tumultuous period in his career following a disappointing spell with Barcelona. Subsequently, he went through three loan stints away from the Catalan club before finalizing a permanent transfer to OGC Nice in July 2021.


Over the past three years, the 24-year-old has exhibited remarkable progress, featuring in 136 matches for OGC Nice and contributing two goals and three assists. Todibo’s impressive performances for Nice have earned him a spot in the national team. Concurrently, his development has attracted the interest of various prominent clubs throughout Europe.

A transition to the Premier League appears to be the most probable outcome in the battle for Jean-Clair Todibo’s signature, with West Ham United recently entering the race to secure his services. Furthermore, the French international has been a target for Manchester United, despite facing obstacles in their pursuit.
Manchester United’s pursuit of Jean-Clair Todibo is justifiable. The Red Devils have been actively seeking a central defender in anticipation of the summer transfer window following the departure of Raphael Varane as a free agent. Manchester United is exploring legal avenues to facilitate the acquisition of the 24-year-old French player after FIFA regulations hindered his potential move to Old Trafford.


Meanwhile, West Ham United’s recent bid of £25.4 million to acquire the French international was unsuccessful. The Hammers are eager to bolster their defensive line this summer following the departure of Angelo Ogbonna, with Nayef Aguerd’s future at the London Stadium uncertain. Therefore, Todibo emerges as a viable target, prompting West Ham to contemplate an enhanced offer to secure his services.
The revised offer from West Ham may bring the East London club closer to finalizing the signing of Jean-Clair Todibo in the upcoming summer transfer window. It remains to be seen whether the improved bid will be sufficient to secure the services of the OGC Nice defender.
