Juventus are making progress in their pursuit of Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo, with the Italian club showing flexibility in negotiating the terms of a potential transfer.
According to Sky Sport Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Initially, Juventus proposed a loan deal with an obligation to buy tied to specific conditions, such as Champions League qualification and Todibo making a certain number of appearances (70%). However, Nice found these conditions too stringent and sought a more straightforward obligation to purchase.
In response, Juventus have now indicated a willingness to revise these terms, aiming to make the obligation to buy more easily attainable. This shift in stance demonstrates Juventus’ strong desire to secure Todibo’s services and their commitment to finding a mutually agreeable solution with Nice.
The negotiations have taken a positive turn, with Juventus showing a readiness to accommodate Nice’s preferences. This development suggests that both clubs are moving closer to finalizing a deal for the 24-year-old French center-back.
Todibo, who has impressed at Nice, is seen as a key target to bolster Juventus’ defensive options. The club’s sporting director and management are working to structure a deal that satisfies all parties involved.
As discussions continue, it appears that Juventus is determined to bring Todibo to Turin, potentially on an initial loan with a more straightforward obligation to buy clause. This flexibility from Juventus could be the key to unlocking the transfer and bringing the talented defender to Serie A.
