Manchester United are reportedly part of a three-way battle to sign Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo. The 24-year-old has been a standout performer for the French club this season and a key part of their surprise Ligue 1 title push.

The France international, who was signed from Barcelona in 2021, is said to be one of the 'most coveted ‘ defenders in European football as the January transfer window begins, with United claimed to be among his possible suitors.

That is according to French outlet Foot Mercato, who state that Tottenham Hotspur have already made a ‘concrete approach’ for the centre-back.

Nice are expected to stand firm over offers for Todibo this month, with a view to possibly cashing in the summer window.
