As every week, here’s an update on the latest rumors from the summer transfer market involving Gym. In recent days, the Aiglons have learned about their schedule for the 2024/2025 season.
This Friday, the LFP unveiled the entire schedule for the 2024/2025 Ligue 1 season. OGC Nice even knows the identity of its opponents for its 34 matches in the upcoming edition of the French championship. The Aiglons will begin with an away game at AJ Auxerre on the weekend of August 18th.
Auxerre has been promoted after winning the Ligue 2 championship. The first home game at the Allianz Riviera will take place the following week, against Toulouse FC. The exact dates and times of the matches remain uncertain. With negotiations dragging on, the LFP has still not found an official broadcaster for the next season.
The First Files Begin
In recent days, several rumors have linked players to OGC Nice. According to RMC Sport, Gym is following the situation of Tanguy Ndombélé. The French international is a free agent after terminating his contract with Tottenham.
According to L’Équipe, the Aiglons are among the suitors for Lorenz Assignon. The full-back plays at Burnley but is not expected to stay after the club’s relegation to the second division. The Frenchman was acquainted with Florian Maurice during his time at Rennes. However, OM, Galatasaray, as well as Fulham and Everton, are also interested in this matter.
Jean-Clair Todibo Won’t Go to Manchester United, Thuram to Juventus?
Gym had reached an agreement with Manchester United for the transfer of Jean-Clair Todibo. However, UEFA vetoed this deal. The European body no longer authorizes transfers between two clubs owned by the same shareholder (Ineos) and competing in the same European competition (Europa League). Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, and Juventus Turin are closely monitoring the situation of the Nice central defender.
According to the specialized journalist, Gianluca Di Marzio, Juventus Turin is interested in Khephren Thuram. With one year left on his contract, the midfielder wants to leave OGC Nice. Gym will receive a transfer fee as part of the transaction.
Finally, Pablo Rosario is reportedly a key target for Ajax Amsterdam to strengthen their midfield. Initial discussions have begun between the two clubs. If he moves to the Dutch capital, the defensive midfielder would reunite with Francesco Farioli, who was just appointed as the head of the Lancers.
