Posted on January 5, 2022 at 8:30 am by G.d.S.S.

Pushed to exit by OM in recent months, Jordan Amavi is set to join OGC Nice in the form of a loan with an option to buy. A case that has taken a decisive turn in recent days…

“We are more on a question of profile. The manager defined Amavi as a pure full-back, while Luan Peres has a hybrid position between center-back and full-back. Everyone knows the real level of Jordan, he has a performance history, ”indicated Pablo Longoria at the beginning of December to justify the cruel lack of playing time of Jordan Amavi , who only records 2 appearances in Ligue 1 this season with OM . The 27-year-old left-back, hired until June 2025, will therefore leave the Marseille club in the coming hours to join OGC Nice as confirmed by L'Equipe in its columns of the day.

OM wanted to include a purchase option for Amavi

The sports daily reveals in its columns of the day behind the scenes of return of Amavi within his training club, and indicates that the agreement between OM and OGC Nice has been concluded on Tuesday evening, and that the medical examination is scheduled for this Wednesday. Discussions had intensified between the two parties since the beginning of January, and Amavi was quickly drawn to the idea of ​​a return as soon as he learned of Nice's interest at the end of year. The positions of the two clubs quickly came closer: OM wanted to include a purchase option, and OGC Nice demanded for their part that the Marseille club take charges one from Amavi's salary. Pablo Longoria has therefore managed to get rid of an unwanted item at the start of the transfer window
