West Ham United open to Jean-Clair Todibo loan exit amid Juventus links as Thiago Motta contacts player

Thiago Motta is reportedly keen for Juventus to land West Ham United defender Jean-Clair Todibo.

According to Sky Sport Italia, West Ham United have opened the door to allowing Jean-Clair Todibo to leave on loan, with Juventus emerging as a potential destination. The French defender, who joined West Ham from OGC Nice, is now the subject of interest from the Serie A giants as they look to bolster their backline during the January transfer window.

Juventus, already poised to complete the signing of Renato Veiga, are actively pursuing a second defensive addition. Todibo fits the profile they are seeking, and West Ham’s willingness to include a loan option with a buy clause has intensified the Italian club’s interest.

Thiago Motta’s role in Jean-Clair Todibo talks

A key development in this potential transfer is the involvement of Thiago Motta, who has reportedly spoken with Todibo to discuss the prospect of a move to Juventus. The conversations appear to have reassured the player about the opportunity to join the Turin-based club, where he could play a pivotal role in strengthening their defensive options.

Todibo is still entering his prime and has been sidelined with an injury but is expected to recover within the next two weeks. His availability and West Ham’s openness to negotiations have sparked optimism within Juventus’s camp.

A move that could benefit all parties

Allowing Jean-Clair Todibo to join Juventus on loan could be a win-win situation for all involved. West Ham would alleviate their defensive congestion while potentially securing a financial return if Juventus opts to exercise the buy clause. For Juventus, Todibo offers a blend of experience and potential, making him an ideal candidate to bolster their backline.

As for Todibo, a move to Serie A could provide him with a fresh start and regular playing opportunities, helping him regain form and confidence after his injury. The coming days will be crucial in determining whether this transfer materializes, but the foundations for a deal are already in place.
