striker, Terem Moffi, has reportedly secured a move to Nice after he underwent a medical at OGC Nice ahead of his €30m transfer from French Ligue 1 side Lorient on the final day of the January transfer, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.
This comes after Nice made a seventh bid to Lorient for the Nigeria international who missed training on Monday after being left out of Lorient’s 2-1 win over Rennes last Friday – a move which sparked rumours of his impending exit from the club. Nice had been in battle with Premier League sides West Ham United, Southampton, Bournemouth and Ligue 1 rivals Olympique Marseille over the transfer of the in-form 23-year-old, who has scored 12 goals in 18 Ligue 1 games.
French journalist Saber Desfarges on Monday tweeted, “Medical visit in progress for Terem Moffi, a step away from OGC Nice.” Another journalist @AntoineGegat also tweeted a picture of the Nigerian at the Lorient airport before his departure to Nice and wrote, “The Nigerian striker flies to Nice, where he will sign for the club by tomorrow . End of a story of two and a half seasons, with 35 goals in 90 matches for the Merlus.”
