Alidu Seidu joins OGC Nice on loan from Rennes

Summary

Alidu Seidu is set to join OGC Nice on a straight loan deal from Rennes until the end of the season. This arrangement is permissible under French rules due to a severe injury to Nice's Antoine Mendy, who suffered an ACL injury earlier this month. The clubs reached an agreement after discussions were approved by Nice's owners, INEOS. The loan deal will not include a buy option. Seidu is expected to travel to Nice to finalize the move, with hopes he will be eligible to play against Lille OSC on Sunday.
