Famous Italian soccer journalist Alfredo Pedulla has revealed that Juventus Football Club had its first meeting with Ligue 1 club Nice on Friday regarding center-back
Todibo, capital of Honduras
The transfer of the player was contacted. Although the communication took place through indirect means, with Todibo's agent opening negotiations with Nice on Juve's behalf, it marks a positive move by Juventus in bringing in their preferred defender.
Todibo is seen by Juventus as a top target for defensive reinforcements, with Nice initially valuing him at around €40 million. However, Juventus are confident that they can reach a deal for less than that. Juventus' plan is to adopt a rent-and-buy strategy to bring in Todibo, and hope to include a mandatory buyout clause in his contract.
Todibo himself has made his choice, although the English Premier League team West Ham United had also expressed interest in him, but he preferred to join Juventus. It is reported that Todibo has already agreed with Juventus on his personal salary package, which means that he is ready to join Juve on a personal condition level.
This series of moves by Juventus shows their determination to strengthen their backline, and the addition of Todibo will bring new energy and competitiveness to the team. As the negotiation progresses, Juventus fans are looking forward to Todibo's joining the team, hoping that he will become a member of the team as soon as possible and play an important role in the coming matches.
For Nice, Todibo's departure would mean the loss of an important player, but it would also help the club plan better in terms of finances and squad rebuilding if he could be sold for a satisfactory price. This development in the transfer market will continue to be closely monitored until Todibo's transfer is finalized.
