Manchester United’s pursuit of Jean-Clair Todibo has taken a significant step forward, as the player himself has confirmed discussions regarding a potential move to Old Trafford. The French international, who previously spent a week on trial at Manchester United early in his career and boasts experience with Barcelona, has hinted at a possible transfer to the 20-time English champions. While Todibo remained respectful and tight-lipped about the specifics out of consideration for his current club and its supporters, his acknowledgment of the talks suggests ongoing negotiations.

 Despite being overlooked for France’s Euro 2024 squad, Todibo’s standout performances for Nice, contributing to their impressive defensive record in Ligue 1, have caught the attention of top clubs. With Todibo potentially offering a solution to Manchester United’s defensive woes, the reported £40 million price tag prompts discussions on whether the Red Devils should proceed with the signing.
