We are not yet at the delay taken last summer in recruitment, which then weighed down the Nice season, but the unknown factor which weighs on the name of its future coach has not given the Gym a head start. . The option leading to Régis Le Bris still appeals to the Riviera leaders but is blocked by Loïc Féry’s desire to retain his coach who has decided to leave Lorient. Nice therefore takes its time.
The planning of the pre-season (camps and friendly matches) has already been fixed for a month, and the structuring of the club established in recent months by the duo that Florent Ghisolfi, the sports director, forms with the general manager Fabrice Bocquet, has been thought out in such a way as to give continuity through a performance cell to the thinking heads and to the organization which would survive the staffs that could succeed one another.
The fact remains that the cell in charge of recruitment is logically hampered in its approaches by the absence of a game project embodied by a technician. That Ineos is still in the dark about the takeover of Manchester United will inevitably have an impact on the means allocated to the leaders of Nice, but Ghisolfi has already established a roadmap with measured ambition, without waiting for the result of these negotiations.
