In great difficulty at FC Nantes, Andy Delort would see himself returning to Montpellier. The Canaries striker directly asked Laurent Nicollin. But the president of the MHSC will not make the slightest financial effort to recover it.
Maintaining has a price for FC Nantes. By keeping his place in the elite in extremis, the resident of Beaujoire automatically exercised the option to buy Andy Delort’s loan. The striker who belonged to OGC Nice is therefore officially transferred to the Canaries for around five million euros. This is not necessarily a good deal for a center forward who has not scored or delivered the slightest assist with the FCN in Ligue 1.
Nicollin will not try anything for Delort
In great difficulty, Andy Delort therefore asked his former superior Laurent Nicollin in Montpellier. But the Hérault president, aware that Nantes will not sell off his player, closed the door again on his return. ” I already answered the question, it’s nodecided the boss of the MHSC in the columns of the Midi Libre. I will not put five or six million euros for the transfer of Delort. If Nantes had gone down, he would have returned to Nice. We could then have discussed a loan or something else. »

” Insofar as there is a purchase option in Nantes, I have no interest in spending millions to recover Delort. In that case, I can take someone else “Explained Laurent Nicollin, in search of the successor of his striker Elye Wahi, who should join a more ambitious team this summer. Remember that Montpellier and Andy Delort had left on very bad terms in August 2021. The former Toulousain had forced his departure to Nice and angered Montpellier supporters. Like Laurent Nicollin, the fans surely did not digest this episode.
