Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo has expressed his willingness to explore the possibility of a summer transfer, which has attracted interest from Manchester United.
The 24-year-old, who has represented France twice, is reportedly available for a fee of approximately £35 million, as reported by The Sun.
“Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo has opened the door to a potential summer transfer,” the article reads.
“The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League in recent months. Both Chelsea and Manchester United are understood to be interested in signing him.
“Todibo’s current contract is set to expire in 2027 but he could be sold this summer for around £35 million.
“The Frenchman has admitted that he would be open to a transfer, but he is not prepared to make a full decision until the summer.
“Todibo said: ‘I am at Nice and we’re having a great season. I don’t have my head elsewhere. If I did it would be difficult for me personally and for the group too.
“’I feel really good at Nice. We’ll see what happens in the summer but we’re not there yet. I don’t want to get ahead of myself. I don’t want to give false hope. For now, I’m here at Nice.’”
“The ex-Barcelona star added: ‘Football moves quickly, you never know what’s going to happen. I’ll wait until the summer to make my decision.
“’If my decision is to stay, I’ll announce it, if it is to leave, I’ll announce it too and I’ll thank everyone, but we’re not there yet.’”
