There will be no change in ownership of Niza Football Club, at least for the time being. The French club, which almost suffered disaster last season, will now be managed by INEOS. After recent negotiations for a potential sale failed, the club's management team have decided to plan for next season. According to the report, Nice-Matin, talks held over the past few weeks did not reach any agreement. Under this situation, Maurice Cohen would still remain at the helm while awaiting the appointment of Geoffrey Moncada, who recently left Milan, as sporting director. Meanwhile, first choices for technical guidance are also being considered. With the definite departure of Claude Puel, Olivier Pantaloni is being considered the main candidate for Nizza. Liam Rosenior's name was also floated among other options, who rejected the offer. Additionally, Laurent Bonaidi, who is currently with the French women's national team, is also under consideration. Additionally, the situation of Sebastian Pocognoli, who is included in the profile being watched by the management, is also being monitored.
