The recruitment of a left side is one of the most anticipated of the Nice transfer window, but also one of the most complicated to finalize. Florent Ghisolfi, the strong man of the Gym transfer window is well aware of this and has been breaking his teeth for several weeks. If the track leading to Algerian international Wolverhampton Rayan Ait-Nouri is still active, it is very difficult to complete. The one leading to Luca Pellegrini (Juventus) is not simpler.
“It’s no secret that the left-back file is the priority. For now, we only have Melvin Bard and the young Ayoub Amraoui, so it is necessary to strengthen this position”, explained Ghisolfi besides the presentation of Morgan Sanson and Jérémie Boga. Melvin Bard obviously cannot be considered a potential starter and the Nice sports director must find him a strong competitor. An arduous task, but not impossible for Ghisolfi who has more than one trick up his sleeve.
A player passed by the reserve of FC Barcelona
Thus, the OGC Nice has activated a new track on the side of La Liga and more precisely of Almeria. According to our information, it is the Spanish left side from Equatorial Guinea Sergio Akieme who is very popular with the Gym recruitment boss. Aged 25, the native of Madrid, who notably passed through the reserve of FC Barcelona, had a season as a starter with Almeria, promoted last season to La Liga and who managed to stay in the Spanish elite.
Endowed with a good size, Akieme is a powerful, fast player who is able to make the difference in one against one. Under contract until June 2026 with the Spanish club, the former Barcelonan could therefore be the appropriate reinforcement so hoped for by the Riviera club. To be continued.
