OGC Nice will have to start from scratch next season.
Fifth in Ligue 1 this season and thus qualified for the Europa League, OGC Nice promises to experience an intense and eventful summer. If not on the transfer market, it is at the organizational chart level that the revolution will take place. With two major departures already acquired: those of coach Francesco Farioli and sports director Florent Ghisolfi.
This Wednesday, AS Rome formalized the arrival of the latest named in its ranks, he who had left Lens for Nice in 2022 in order to carry out the Ineos group’s sporting project on the Côte d’Azur. Florent Ghisolfi has signed up for three years with La Louve, leaving the Aiglons like Italian coach Francesco Farioli, who has joined Ajax.
A Maurice-Genesio ticket approaching?
According to L’Equipe, the 35-year-old technician has already reached an agreement with the Amsterdam club, who will have to pay a transfer fee estimated at around one million euros. His deputies Daniele Cavalletto and Felipe Sanchez Mateos would also appear in the deal.
As for the position of sports director, Florian Maurice, currently in Rennes, would be favored by the Nice management. Bruno Genesio would be tipped to take over on the Gym bench.
