Jean-Clair Todibo did not take to the field in the friendly match between Lecce and Nice, which ended in a 2-2 draw, even though his number 6 jersey was gifted by the French team to the Apulians.
As explained by Sky Sport, the defender is Juventus’ top transfer priority.
Sources from within the Nice camp have hinted at the possibility of Todibo’s impending move to the Italian giants.
Juventus are actively seeking to bolster their defensive options, and Todibo has emerged as the prime candidate.
Further speculation suggests that Juventus are preparing a concrete offer to secure Todibo’s services before the transfer window closes.
“Todibo is a player we’ve been watching closely,” a Juventus spokesperson was quoted as saying by Sky Sport. “We believe he can greatly enhance our defensive line-up.”
Fans are eagerly awaiting official confirmation, as this transfer could prove pivotal for Juventus’ upcoming season ambitions.
