Manchester United are closing in on the signatures of the 23-year-old OGC Nice centre-back Jean-Clair Todibo.
According to a report by L’Équipe, Manchester United are looking to bolster their defence before the end of the transfer window and have their eyes set on Jean-Clair Todibo. The 23-year-old defender has been in sensational form over the past few seasons and the Red Devils are closing in on his signatures.
United have already made several big money moves in the ongoing transfer window. They have added a new striker, midfielder and a goalkeeper to the mix. While the majority of Erik ten Hag’s concerns have been addressed, the Dutch manager is still keen on signing a new centre-back.
Former Manchester United skipper Harry Maguire is not a part of Ten Hag’s plans and he is looking to secure a replacement. While the Red Devils’ priority was to first offload the England international and then sign a new defender, they haven’t been able to get him off their books so far.
A transfer to West Ham United was on the cards but it collapsed in the end. As of now, Maguire will continue at United. Despite that, the Red Devils are very close to agreeing a deal with Nice for the services of Todibo.
The 23-year-old French centre-back joined Barcelona back in 2019. But, things didn’t go according to plan for him at the Spanish club and he ended up joining the French club in the winter of 2021 on a six-month loan. On the back of his impressive performances, the move was made permanent in the following summer window.
Todibo has revived his career and has gone from strength to strength since joining the Nice. He was on fire last season, making a total of 46 appearances and racking up over 4000 minutes.
His impressive performances have resulted in a total of interest from across Europe. And, Manchester United are one of the clubs that have been closely monitoring him. The Red Devils recently started talks with Nice over a potential transfer.
Manchester United scouts were present in the stands to watch the 23-year-old in action against Lille in the Ligue 1 curtain-raiser. They were quite impressed with his performance and have given a green light to the transfer. And, according to L’Équipe, the Red Devils are very close to agreeing on a deal with the French club.
