Marseille Rival Nice Pursues Lorenzi

After 10 years at Stade Brestois, sporting director Grégory Lorenzi is set to join OGC Nice this summer. The Ligue 1 club has reportedly beaten Premier League competition from Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace to secure his signature, though the deal is not yet finalized.

Nice must first confirm their place in Ligue 1 for next season and agree terms regarding Florian Maurice's departure. The club's ongoing ownership situation with INEOS attempting to sell could also complicate matters. Meanwhile, Olympique de Marseille is monitoring the situation as they seek a replacement for Medhi Benatia. biznow.biz
