Todibo does not want to return to the Barça

Todibo smiles in Nice. The center-back, after not entering into Jorge Jesús' plans in his transfer to Benfica, packed his bags again to finish the course in Ligue 1. And his new adventure could not have started in a better way, as he kissed the saint of the ownership as soon as it landed. That comfort on the Côte d'Azur has made him 'forget' about Barcelona, ​​a team that still has its rights. Nice has a purchase option of 8.5 million euros at the end of the loan that, it is clear, Todibo expects them to execute.

“I don't know if it's ordered for next season, but that's my ambition. So eI hope that happens. My individual performances will determine whether or not I stay here. “, he points out in reference to his stay at Nice. “The most important thing is to concentrate on these games. They are games that will give Nice points,” he continued before declaring again that his head is far from the Camp Nou: “Today I am a player for Nice, not for Barcelona”.

“I'm not very interested in what's going on”

Furthermore, when asked about the Barça situation, he continued along the same lines: “Nor I'm going to lie to you, I'm not very interested in what's going on. From time to time I see games in which my French colleagues play (Lenglet, Umtiti, Dembélé, Griezmann). I look at them only because I consider them friends. But other than that, I'm not following them. “

As we progressed, the Toulouse youth squad has fallen on his feet at the Allianz Riviera and forms a fantastic pair with William Saliba, another player on loan, in this case by Arsenal. Starter in five of the six league games in which he has been available since his arrival, if it maintains the level it would not be surprising that the Nice executes the purchase option. However, it is a plant project with a great future (21 years).
