Wishing to leave OGC Nice this winter, Andy Delort could be ready for FC Nantes. To replace him, the Azuren club has contacted Lorient striker Terem Moffi.
Delort is heading for a Nice start this winter
Andy Delort’s adventure at OGC Nice may end with a beautiful image. That of a striker and decisive passer during the card of the Niois against Montpellier (6-1), Wednesday, on the occasion of the 18th day of Ligue 1.
Delort lends Nantes?
Due to a promise of salary increase not kept by his management, as well as the departure of Christophe Galtier last summer, the 31-year-old center forward has demanded his departure from Nice this winter. The former Montpellier player was then offered Marseille and Lens in particular, but it is on the side of Nantes that his future seems to be written.
This file has experienced an acceleration in recent hours. While the daily Ouest-France revealed the existence of a Nantes offer of 2 million euros refused by Nice, which also rejected an offer of 6 million euros from a club from the Gulf countries, RMC affirms for its part that the Algerian international should be ready for the Canaries with a compulsory purchase option, the amount of which has not been filtered.
Nice targets Moffi
To replace him, the OGCN looks to Lorient. Still according to the same source, the management of Nioise has targeted Lorient center forward Terem Moffi (23), current second top scorer in Ligue 1 (11 goals, like Neymar) behind Kylian Mbapp (13 goals). The new coach of the Riviera club, Didier Digard, has even already changed with the Nigerian international to take the temperature.
However, the management of Lorient does not intend to easily give up its top scorer during the season and is demanding 28 million euros to accept his departure. It remains to be seen whether Nice is willing to pay such a sum this winter for an element also targeted in England by West Ham and Southampton, which has already made an offer of €20 million (bonus included) rejected by the Hakes. An English competition with which it is often difficult to fight.
Moffi instead of Delort, a good idea? Do not hesitate to react and discuss in the area add a comment …
