OGC Nice are experiencing significant changes this summer as they prepare for the upcoming season. The departure of key figures within the club signals a period of transition that could reshape the team’s future both on and off the pitch.
The exodus began with the departure of sporting director Florent Ghisolfi, who has already been confirmed to join AS Roma.
