GOC Nice continues to expand its workforce with the arrival of a new central defender, Kojo Peprah Oppoong, aged 21. This young player, a Ghanaian national from the Swedish club IFK Norrköping, reinforces a defensive line that had been a priority for the club. This recruit intervenes in a context of significant injuries within the team, with Franck Haisez deprived of several key players such as Mohamed Abdelmoneem, Youssouf NdayiShimiyye, Moïse Bombito. The amount of the transaction, although not officially communicated, would be approximately 4.5 million euros including bonuses. The club is now looking to recruit a creative midfielder and an offensive player to complete its workforce.

Along with these arrivals, the club confirmed the departure of Gaëtan Labordée, attacking who joined the Saudi club of Al Diriyah after a year in mastery. A similar trend could be confirmed with Evans Guessand, the Nice revelation of last season, which would be closer to Crystal Palace. Although no formal offers have been received, Guessand has a departure clause that facilitates its departure. In addition, the club formalized the loans of Aliou Baldé and Issiaga Camara, respectively to St Gallen (Switzerland) and IF Brommapojkarna (Sweden), with purchasing options integrated into these contracts.

Finally, Pablo Rosario, absent from the pre-season training course in Austria, is also in the process of leaving the club. These departures and arrivals reflect an important renewal period for the Nice GCO, which aims to strengthen its workforce and prepare for the new season. The club will have to deal with these changes while focusing on its sporting objectives, particularly in view of the Benfica shock. The arrival of Kojo Peprah Oppoong represents a valuable reinforcement for a defence that has been put to the test in recent weeks.
