The bidding goes up, a transfer moves away for OM

Since the arrival of Ruslan Malinovskyi in midfield, OM now want to recruit a top striker. In recent hours, the Terem Moffi track has been stirring the news of this winter transfer window. In competition with OGC Nice in this case, the intrusion of OM forced the Aiglons to raise their offer, at a time when the Merlus striker seems determined to join the Riviera club.

Author of 12 goals in 18 matches League 1 since the start of the season, Terem Moffi caught the eye of recruiters from theOGC Nicebut also of OM. Indeed, while the Aiglons have a comfortable lead in this case, since the Nigerian wants to join them, they were forced to raise their offer given the Marseille threat.

Nice offers 23M€

According to information from FootMercatoI’OGC Nice would have sent its 5th offer to Lorient to recruit Terem Moffi. The latter would be €23 million, including €3 million in bonuses. The sports director Florent Ghisolfi was even present in Morbihan this Wednesday to try to finalize the deal, when OM is treading water in this case closely linked to that of Bamba Dieng.

Lorient claims 30M€

Whether Nice increases its offer by proposing 23M€, the Gym is still far from reaching the 30M€ requested by the Lorient president Loic Fery as revealed by The Team. The Merlus do not intend to sell off the price of their nugget in this winter transfer window when his contract expires in June 2024. On the Nice side, we are looking to quickly complete this file while Terem Moffi seems to have decided in favor of the Gym, rather than joining OM.
