RC Strasbourg Alsace has made inquiries about signing Kojo Oppong from OGC Nice, as reported by L'Équipe. This move follows the collapse of Strasbourg's transfer for Ibrahima Ba, who has since signed with Sporting CP. Oppong, aged 22, is seen as a valuable asset after a strong debut season in Ligue 1, and Turkish club Trabzonspor is also interested. With Oppong contracted to Nice until 2029, the club could command a significant fee for the Ghanaian defender.
