admin Manchester United have been given a lift in their chase to sign Jean-Clair Todibo as the player has seemingly ended all rumours that he will be joining a Spanish titan this summer.
Todibo has enjoyed another solid season at Nice, making 33 appearances in all competitions and helping the club finish fifth in Ligue 1, while also reaching the quarter-finals of the French Cup. The centre-back is now a fully fledged France international, too, and he could be rewarded for his great performances with a big summer move.

Man Utd news: Ratcliffe gets Jean-Clair Todibo boost
“They [Barca] said I was going to be [Gerard] Pique’s replacement, but I never had the opportunity,” he said.
“I only played five games, and I did well, but they never told me anything. Nobody wanted to talk to me at Barcelona, only [ex-sporting director Eric] Abidal.”
In February, Todibo was asked about re-joining Barca, and he did little to calm the speculation down by responding, ‘Why not?’
However, it appears the player has thought about such a move and is no longer considering it, as he has bad memories in Catalonia.
